Re: [DISCUSS] Do we need a vote for moving components to git?

[Benedikt Ritter]

Hi All,

okay, so I conclude that we currently see no need to change our process. I’m 
fine with that.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this topic!

No harm done by starting a lazy vote. And, whatever component you've
got in mind: The overhead to start and have this discussion will
definitely be greater than the overhead of having the vote.

I am OK with keeping the lazy vote since it is pretty frictionless, and
gives people the opportunity to officially raise their hand and show why
this is a problem for them. In practice though, moving everything to Git is
just a matter of time. I can imagine that we would just move components to
the attic that eventually do not get moved to Git. IOW, eventually move to
Git or move to the attic.

The only objection I've seen to switching on any project so far was other
projects using svn:external to sync up a commons project, but there are
workarounds for that (e.g., the GitHub svn mirror).

unless there is strong reason to stick with svn we should move on git(as
many other already moved). I agree that in few cases svn is preferred and
that may open huge discussion but atleast for Commons I don't see much
advantages to use svn. people who are using svn from long time usually
comes in comfort zone since svn is really really easy to use. :)

There certainly are people who disagree with your (I'm not one of them) ;-)

Hmm, what if one of the active developers of the component then says
she/he would prefer to stick with svn? We've had such cases in the past.

If you then reconsider or at least start to discuss I don't really see
the difference between a lazy vote and the announcement.

Re: [DISCUSS] Do we need a vote for moving components to git?

[Amey Jadiye]

I think just announcing with intention is enough as git is always better
than svn and at some point everyone will wish to move on git.

so +1 to just announce it.
