Recently many apache projects switched from svn to git (like Camel and Karaf).
As git has many advantages compared to svn (especially for back ports) I think
it makes sense to also do this switch for cxf.
Any opinions?
I’m OK with it. It would require me to actually update the DoMerges thing,
but that’s minor. :-)
Few thoughts though:
1) Lets wait until after at least milestone2. We’re close and I don’t want to
screw any of that up.
2) I’d LIKE to rebuild the git repo and possibly remove all the /incubator
revisions and tags. Kind of “start” at the graduation. Maybe a bit before at
the 2.0-incubator release. Or at least all the “lib” dirs out of them. That
would chop about 100MB out of the .git directory making it a LOT smaller. The
original codebase kept .jar files in the repo which sucks with git. I’m
really not sure how much of the history and tags from 2005/2006 is at all
important anymore so this is likely not a big deal. Plus, the history is
still in SVN if we really need it.
+1 on pruning the incubator stuff and the old libs.
Who is going to process pull requests? you? (really just to know which
process is being adopted)
Cheers
