How can I get the svn ice to work?

[carneloot]

I'm trying to install the oh-my-zsh plugin for git-flow aliases and completions, but the svn ice is not working.

I'm simply trying to do

zi ice svn
zi snippet OMZP::git-flow

But it does not work. I keep getting the error:

Snippet: OMZP::git-flow
Downloading: `OMZP::git-flow` (with Subversion)…
svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/trunk/plugins/git-flow'
svn: E160013: '/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/trunk/plugins/git-flow' path not found

How can I get this to work?

Hi @carneloot 👋

The answer is you can't get SVN to work with GitHub, and the reasoning is described here: https://github.blog/2023-01-20-sunsetting-subversion-support/

We are considering the possible alternatives and will update the wiki ASAP when a reasonable solution is found.

Hey, thanks for the info! I couldn't find anything online and was getting worried. Now it all makes sense.
