https svn.wikimedia.org missing viewvc capability
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Looks like svn.wikimedia.org was restructured. At the moment, it points to the "formey" server which also host gerrit.

The viewvc tool is no more reachable : https://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/
We have it linked from www.mediawiki.org main page. Did someone forgot to reinstall viewvc? :-)

It doesn't support https, WFM if you drop the 's'

I got HTTPs everywhere which redirect me automatically. Looks like we should add support for HTTPs.

We need https support for viewvc?

Not really, but probably does not cost a lot to have Apache configured to support it.
The workaround, for me, would be to add an exception to HTTPS everywhere.

Yes. We should have https for this. We should have it for everything.

Actually yeah, I agree now. I'm getting mixed content warnings on CodeReview since the various links are pointing to http://. Once we've got SSL on formey, I can update that config.

the linked RT ticket has been resolved in November and this also works meanwhile:
