Sandbox structure (directory level for tags)

These top level directories are found in the repository: sandbox/ sandbox-branches/ sandbox-tags/ And now I found this (yes, I did checkout the sandbox..): sandbox/SOC/2006/concurrency/ branches/ tags/ trunk/ http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostSandbox says that the sandbox should be organized by project. Should sandbox-branches and sandbox-tags be removed to make this more clear? /$

Not until everything important from those subdirectories has been moved somewhere else. I know that some of the pieces in there are very active now (e.g., sandbox-branches/boost-cmake). The authors of subdirectories in there could help out by moving away or removing their subdirectories, of course. - Doug

Wasn't the cmake branch moved to sandbox-branches (from sandbox) to get only one version of Boost, when checking out the complete sandbox? /$

Yes. The CMake branch is Boost 1.34.0 + the CMake build system. It was moved to sandbox-branches so that people checking out the complete sandbox would not also end up downloading a complete Boost tree (or, in the original case, several complete Boost trees). - Doug

What is the recommendation then? Moving everything from sandbox-branches to sandbox? Or moving eg http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/sandbox/SOC/2006/concurrency/tags to http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/sandbox-tags? Confused. /$

That's what the recent threads about the structure of the Subversion repository were about, but there wasn't a definitive conclusion. - Doug

For example IMO we don't need any notion of sandbox at all. Gennadiy

Do you mean that Boost shouldn't provide a development environment for libraries that haven't been approved or that these libraries should be placed in the main Boost repository? Cheers, Nicola Musatti

No.

Yes. I mean it shouldn't be any different in svn from regular accepted library. At release time we only pick accepted libraries. Gennadiy
