> I still don't know what will we do with files which existed in submodules. @gregory-nutt do you remember if at the very beginning (where "beginning" is a commit which exists in this repo) all files where part of the repo? It appears sometime submodules started to be used and then submodules where removed. So there's a part of the history where I can't access the file contents. But given that authors are never **removed** from headers, this should not be a problem (I just have to consider this case of non-accessible files). I am not sure what you are asking for. I do have snapshots of the old submodule repositories. That snapshots are dated Apr 19, 2016: drwxr-xr-x+ 1 spuda spuda 0 Apr 19 2016 arch-April4 drwxr-xr-x+ 1 spuda spuda 0 Apr 19 2016 boards-April3 drwxr-xr-x+ 1 spuda spuda 0 Apr 19 2016 Documentation-April4 drwxr-xr-x+ 1 spuda spuda 0 Apr 19 2016 nuttx-April4 $ find . -name .git ./arch-April4/.git ./boards-April3/.git ./Documentation-April4/.git ./nuttx-April4/.git ./nuttx-April4/arch/.git ./nuttx-April4/configs/.git ./nuttx-April4/documentation/.git These are the last commits in the repository snapshots. Because these were merged, the hashes are probably no longer the same. arch-April14: 6b2955bacf56b42470d59ef677004e8beed0794d, April 4 boards-April13: 2fee7d85361d34343fa82807d45a62f37378ad5f, April 3 Documentation-April14: a1eb57539fc9f63eabe5bcff7d68d98ad41447b4, March 30 nuttx-April14: aea5b9fd38589f8ede7bc5677df6c0f2f06bcca7, April 4 Would those be useful to you? From the history, it looks like the submodules were removed in early April: commit 7337e748de8e6952c4815d279c2eb82aa72dc382 Merge: 48106e605a 6e24c287f6 Author: Gregory Nutt <gn...@nuttx.org> Date: Sun Apr 10 07:57:59 2016 -0600 Merge in configs/ submodule commit 48106e605a71f7aabb1188a9aa9a6ecb7f0bc934 Merge: 835ad1bd4d 8f15af280a Author: Gregory Nutt <gn...@nuttx.org> Date: Sun Apr 10 07:49:41 2016 -0600 Merge in arch/ submodule commit 835ad1bd4d91820f612d53b9ce46eee131c208af Merge: a031fc1a88 2693be512b Author: Gregory Nutt <gn...@nuttx.org> Date: Sun Apr 10 07:38:26 2016 -0600 Merge in the Documentation submodule commit a031fc1a8899a9d0647b968ecf96324e73a13df1 Author: Gregory Nutt <gn...@nuttx.org> Date: Sat Apr 9 12:36:05 2016 -0600 Remove submodules ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
