I allows us to postpone the decision whether to preserve full history or not: On Sun, Jan 11, 2009 at 12:50:58PM +0100, Thomas Schwinge wrote: > And then, would you really want a separate libihash repository (that > is, separated *after* the conversion) contain the whole libdiskfs > (etc.) history? You could still drop part of the history in the new split out libihash and libpthread repositories. Doing it after the conversion doesn't prevent this at all. (The main repository would keep the libpthread/libihash history, but surely this is not a problem for you?) > Sure it doesn't matter anymore in a purely complexity (disk space, > processing time) calculation, but we do have some sense for aesthetics > as well, don't we? We already talked about that in a different context: Aesthetics is seldom a good reason for making gratituous changes... Anyways, I'm not sure an inconsistent history appeals more to my sense of aesthetics than a bloated one. -antrik-
