After the website infrastructure changes (cadb20c18a), the release script now puts stuff in /osgeo/openlayers/sites/openlayers.org (instead of /osgeo/openlayers/docs).
The svn interface to our repos on git is not behaving well. This is resulting in the website, examples, and api docs not being updated when they should (`svn up` is not doing what it should).
Instead of using svn checkouts, we should use clones of the git repos. At the same time, it makes sense to organize things a bit. These changes depend on a new structure on the openlayers.org machine:
/osgeo/openlayers/repos - clones of our openlayers, docs, and website repos
/osgeo/openlayers/sites - sources for openlayers.org, dev.openlayers.org, and docs.openlayers.org
Where things are "built" (e.g. minifying js and modifying example markup to point to that js), changes are now made outside of the repo cleans. Having dirty repos was another source of build failures.
Changes still need to be made to the release process/script.
When we upgraded to git, we didn't fully change over the way the website and examples are built. The cron job that runs the update script only built the website & examples if the revision returned by the svn interface to the GitHub repo was different than the previously stored revision. At some point, using `svn info` on the repo stopped being reliable. For example, this is what I get when running this today (in 2012):
svn info https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/

(Last change looks like it was 6 years ago.)
We should be using a proper clone of the git repo and building the website and examples out of this. Until then, we can at least use `git-ls-remote` to check what the latest HEAD from the canonical repo looks like. This should get the website and examples building again (they stopped being updated a few weeks ago).
This reverts commit af046b9af8, reversing
changes made to f36fd5f0d1. The reason for reverting this is that the change breaks the select-feature-multilayer.html example.
This is required for IFrame tiles, so we don't set the opacity on the event pane. To make this work with vector layers, the defs node needs to be inserted before the root group element instead of after it.
Previously, Bing overlays that were added to an existing map had empty tiles, because tiles are added before the layer url is set in initLayer. This change makes sure tiles are only rendered when the layer url is available, by not processing the tile queue before the layer url is set.
