Please have a look at our new READ-ONLY git mirror.
That's great news, thanks! Kudos to Jake. Having a reference
git-repository will allow us to do some nifty things:
I'll prepare some git-packs with pre-AOO history from its older
Mercurial, Subversion and maybe even from its CVS-based open-source
ancestors. Using git's "graft" facilities this will make it much
easier to research the history of parts of the codebase where noone is
left to tell the story or its details. Having the individual commit
comments and their issue numbers is invaluable then.
Is there a gitweb or similar frontend to our git-mirror? Then we could
e.g. provide a link from the nightly builds to their respective
version history.
As expected in my JIRA-request the two-level deep svn-branches (i.e.
alg/aw080 and alg/sysdepgs) have been munged into one git-branch...
These are my branches and I am concerned, these contain quite some work.
I think that adding some more strutcture as I did by adding my branches
to an own directory is in general not a bad thing, so if this could be
made to work with the git mirror somehow easily, this would be the
easiest way for now.
The alternative would be to somehow 'move' these branches, e.g.
branches/alg/aw080 -> branches/alg_aw080
branches/alg/sysdepgs -> branches/alg_sysdepgs
If it is intended to have a flat hierarchy in the branches subdirectory
I will try to do so and I am open to suggestions how to do that without
immense new amounts of commits and similar stuff. I currently see no
easy way to do this with svn, but maybe some experts could help with
suggestions here.
Thanks for the git clone!
Looking forward to suggestions..
Also the symphony branch is missing because it was checked into svn at
a non-canonic location so the git-mirror couldn't pick it up.
Once everybody is happy, we can consider moving fully to GIT, I will
however recommend to it imidiatly after next release.
I'll have to adjust the svn2bz bot, we'll have to adjust the buildbots
and there are some other scripts that have to be updated before we can
think about a full switch.
But I look forward to git's proper author attributions, interactive
rebasing, intact individual commits after merges, nice cherry-picks, etc.
Herbert
