Re: [fonc] maru hg-to-git mirror on github

2014-01-28 Thread Attila Lendvai
 Thanks for setting up a Git bridge.  The VPRI wiki should probably be updated,
 since the following page lists a Git repository that has been unreachable for
 many months (git://fig.org/idst.git).

   http://vpri.org/fonc_wiki/index.php/Installation_Guide


that wiki seems to be dead, and i couldn't create an account
either. (also, i personally miss the bird's eye view to edit that
page)

i'll move further maru related discussion to the maru-dev list:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/maru-dev

i've also enabled the wiki for the github project where i'll record
any useful/related info/plans/people i can find:

https://github.com/attila-lendvai/maru/wiki

i'd be happy to add contributors to the github project, so let me
know!

Re: [fonc] maru hg-to-git mirror on github

2014-01-27 Thread Attila Lendvai
 i've created a conversion of the official maru repo and uploaded it
 to github.

 https://github.com/attila-lendvai/maru


FYI, due to lack of feedback i've decided on my own to record my work
into a git snapshot of the maru repo at the same url i've advertised previously:

https://github.com/attila-lendvai/maru

but this conversion is created using hg-git, a plugin for mercurial
that enables it to be push into git remotes.

the git mirror i've originally advertised has been created with
hg-fast-export, a standalone script. unfortunately the two git repos
don't share the same root, and even though they are practically
identical, they are different git repos. i've renamed that repo on
github and will delete it eventually.

the new git repo has a branch called 'official' which is the 'default'
branch of the official hg repo. i can trivially update it by 'hg
pull', 'hg push git-url', so let me know if that would help you and
it's lagging behind the official.

Hi Atila,

I just saw your due to lack of interest post about this thread. Don't be 
disenheartened. I'm quite interested in your effort. I don't have a heap of 
time to invest in this, but I wanted to get back to learning maru again and 
doing a similar thing at some stage, too. For me, the last time I tried, it was 
just too difficult because I didn't know enough LISP/scheme. Now I know a *lot* 
more, but I just need to get some chunks of time to work on learning it better 
(possibly).

So, suffice to say I'm very happy there are others working on the pedagogical 
aspects of maru. Thank you! Please don't think your efforts are in vain.

From,
Julian___
