Agreed. Should we call the git version openoffice-devtools.git? Or do we move 
these to a devtools directory in openoffice.git?

We can then archive the directories that are no longer relevant

The `devtools` repo is still hosted under svn... should we migrate it to git?

Personally, I think that the latter makes more sense. I see no real reason why 
they need to be sep repos.

I agree. It will take some git magic, but it should be possible to merge that 
part of the svn into apache/openoffice.git trunk as a the devtools directory.

Is this something that requires an infra ticket?

I’m willing to give some ideas I’ve found on stackoverflow a try locally and if 
that works I can push a PR.

Step 1 is to checkout devtools with git.

I don't see a need to merge anything here...

Devtools is SVN. Just clone it locally, copy it over to AOO\trunk and commit it.

Step 2 is something like:

I still am not sure if I want it in trunk, but if it is only a sub-directory in root that would be OK for me.

Best,
Dave
