rgl has been on R-forge for a long time, but I am now planning on
migrating it to Github. I really dislike git, but Github offers enough
benefits, and nowadays I'm familiar enough with them, that I think I'd
be better off there.
The easiest way to do this would be to do almost nothing: just declare
the the dmurdoch/rgl fork of r-forge/rgl is now where all new changes
will be committed.
Can anyone else who has done this migration tell me if there there any
disadvantages to this that I don't know about? What I know:
- I'll lose the bug reports and forum discussions that were sent to
R-forge.
- I'll need to do a bit of work to change dmurdoch/rgl to a more
standard R package layout, but this should be quite easy: basically
just moving the files in pkg/rgl to the top level. I assume "git mv"
will keep their history if I do this.
