I don't know exactly when this was and where. I believe it was somewhere below the events pages but I can be wrong about that. Didn't try to dig it up and restart the whole thing - like written, it took me almost three days of (non-constant) running git-cvsimport. > Are there any ChangeLog-style files in the repository? What do you mean? I'm sorry and don't get your question. Feel free to dig around <http://git.debian.org/?p=users/alfie/webwml.git;a=summary> to find out yourself, or pretty please be a bit more verbose on what you want. > I think initial clone times/bandwidth requirements can be totally > ignored, especially when it comes to translations. To some degree yes. It should be obvious to everyone involved that a conversion to a new VCS will require a new checkout and can't be done by some local conversion magic, and that this new initial checkout requires some bandwidth and time. And there is still the option that submodules might help translators disk space, but I'd like to know first how many would really need that because I don't think that we should waste effort on stuff that won't get used in the end. Furthermore, all the scripts that are currently lying around in the root directory would propably need to get moved to a subdirectory when using submodules so that people can check them out, too?
