Description James Henstridge 2004-11-28 06:28:29 UTC

Before the breakin, people who went to http://cvs.freedesktop.org/ were
redirected to http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/

Now there are two viewcvs installations -- a nicely configured one at
http://cvs.freedesktop.org/, and another one at
http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/ that doesn't seem to have been
configured properly (some old links seem to break).

The best solution would be to redirect requests to the new location.  This could
be done by adding the following line to the www.freedesktop.org vhost:
  Redirect permanent /cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/ http://cvs.freedesktop.org/

The redirect line might have to come before the "ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ ..." line
in order to be seen though.

Done, cheers.
