Hey
Tomorrow, on March 20 2010, it is exactly 12 years since the first
release of curl. It is about time to freshen up a few things in this
project.
congratulations!
What am I talking about? Version control and Bug tracking mostly.
I'll elaborate below. This is what I feel we should do to inject
some freshness into the project and get rid of some of the rough
edges that we still have.
I'm listening to your feedback. Am I wrong or am I right?
Version control
---------------
<snip>
The only sane way forward as I see things is to go git. With git we
get much
better handling of patches (git am), we get much better handling of
original
author (git am and git commit --author etc) and it allows for a lot
more
fancy stuff that might be handy at times (like offline work and
branching
and...).
A wonderful choice in my opinion. Widely adopted, lots of help
available for people that need it, fast, good features.
Bug tracking
------------
<snip>
regular curl web server (owned and run by Haxx). My plan is to
import the SF
entries to trac and disable the SF one.
is Jira a possibility? Is the fact that its not open source an issue?
Its my current favorite because of ease-of-use but trac is fine.
