SVN Access to Theme Repository

[Devin]

I submitted a theme to the repository a couple days ago: http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/465.


It appears to be in approval limbo right now, but I'd like to make a few updates via SVN. I'm using Mac & Versions, but when I try and commit I get an error:


Commit failed (details follow):
Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to MKACTIVITY request for '/!svn/act/ff7820c1-e527-46c8-95b6-a56b471b1c7e'


I'm trying to log in with:
http://downstairsdev@themes.svn.word...olio-theme/0.3


Any ideas?


I also posted this question in the fourms: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/4...1#post-1618218

Unless things have changed recently, Theme authors don't get svn access. Only plugin authors do.

If you resubmit the theme while it's in the approval queue, it will get bumped to the bottom again.

Hm, can I resubmit something with the same name? Maybe I can just up the version number and give it another go. Thanks for the replies.

Bump the revision number, resubmit, and then email the Theme Reviewers mail list to let us know that you have submitted a new revision. It'll go to the back of the queue, but I'm going to bring that up with the other reviewers. I have an idea.

Correct, SVN is only really there for versioning the themes right now/as a data storage. Authors dont get access, only the website will add a new version when you upload it.
