Well, I'm still learning about Git, but it looks like we have to resolve the TLF svn:externals issue and it isn't clear that links in the file system are going to work on Windows and are the "correct" solution.
Does anybody actually know the answer? Or do we just have to figure it out on our own. One thing I saw on the internet says that you can just pull from the other project if there aren't any conflicts with file names. Would that work? Were submodules and/or subtrees ruled out? It appeared from the Git manual that an update of the main project doesn't automatically update the submodules, so that will leave us open to making mistakes staying in sync. IMO, we should re-think why we had TLF as an svn:external. I think we just did it so the build scripts wouldn't have to change that much from the Adobe days, so we could find the source where we were used to seeing it. But looking not to far into the future, our releases may become a composition of stuff from the various Apache Flex "sub-projects". For example, the FlexJS stuff is compositing things from the old Flex SDK, the Falcon project and the ASJS project. So, given that we might have sync issues in Git even with submodules, maybe the answer is to rework the release scripts to composite from multiple projects? -Alex On 3/12/13 3:59 AM, "Frédéric THOMAS" <webdoubl...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Still that :) > > I guess on windows I should find a way to to a hard link, right ? > > -Fred > > -----Message d'origine----- > From: Justin Mclean > Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 11:26 AM > To: dev@flex.apache.org > Subject: Re: SVN to Git migration in progress > > Hi, > > Well the good news is other than the flex-sdk git repo compiles a usable SDK > if you work around the TLF issue. > > Justin > -- Alex Harui Flex SDK Team Adobe Systems, Inc. http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui
