Description Ed Willink CLA 2010-12-10 03:42:28 EST
Following "CVS and SVN repositories are browseable on the web." from http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project_summary.php?projectid=modeling.mdt.ocl now requires considerable insight and determination to get anywhere.

It starts in the wrong (Eclipse rather than Modeling) repository with a not very obvious alternate repositor selector.

I'm sure this used to be much better.

Surely since the project meta-data lists repositories, the default should clearly indicate the registered repositories, pre-selecting the first.

The layout was changed with the new version of ViewVC in order to better match our current website theme.

Even with the previous version the 'default' repository was the Eclipse project.

I've updated the apache config to re-direct any request that doesn't provide a repository to point at the 'complete' list of repositories.
