Hello GNU Octave developers,

We (savannah admins) are working on migrating savannah to new servers.
Part of the migration is moving the source-code repositories, e.g.
 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers-public/2016-12/msg00014.html

GNU Octave is one of the main users of hg/mercurial on savannah.
Could you help us test it before we migrate?
this will ease the migration and avoid service disruptions.

Specifically, can you test and confirm the following works for you? 
(Note the temporary URLs have '0' in them.)

Web-browsing using 
   https://hg0.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/

SSH access:
   hg clone ssh://<user>@hg0.savannah.gnu.org/octave


If these work fine, we'll change the IP of 'hg.savannah.gnu.org' to point to the new server.

Thanks,
- assaf

Assaf,

I'm a maintainer of octave and have a user ID.  I was able to clone the repo successfully and the web browsing interface also appears to work correctly.

Cheers,
Rik
