Hey folks, Daniel Gruno sent an email to the dev list about the deprecation of our git-wip repositories [1] (these are the canonical repos that committers push changes to and are currently mirrored to GitHub) and transitioning to GitBox [2].
As highlighted in that email, this will not be an optional change, only in when and how it happens. There was a previous discussion over this topic [3] where it was generally well received but I think some of the logistics were never mapped out and thus the actual request to do so was never executed. I am proposing we volunteer for the early relocation. The process looks to be fairly straightforward and should ultimately only result in requiring our contributors to add/replace their original git-wip based remotes. If folks are in favor, I am happy to file the requisite INFRA ticket and provide the associated communication/docs to the community to make this happen. Again, this is only about making the choice to perform this migration now, in a coordinated manner, in lieu of the mass migration that would happen later. >From a project management standpoint, I think it is a nice bit of functionality that lets us better curate our open PRs and, given my prior interest in the subject, would like to see it happen. --aldrin [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/8247bb17671d6131b1d7a646b4c018b21aac390c4f627d8fb1f421b2@%3Cdev.nifi.apache.org%3E [2] https://gitbox.apache.org/ [3] https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/de5e103994f356b1b8a572410938eef44af8cb352210e35305c04bc9@%3Cdev.nifi.apache.org%3E
