AFAICR this happened after @gstein insisting [1]_ on the fact that he
«really dislike tags that differ from the archive; it means the tag is
not a true copy of the release» . However if testing plugins code
depends on code in this folder then afaict there is a «good reason» to
make an exception and keep it in trunk , isn't it ? In production such
artifacts will be gone , but in development environment they'll still
be handy .
Considering @brane's reply and facts mentioned above :
- Is it possible to bring contrib folder back into trunk any time soon ?
I'd like to start working on Bloodhound RPC since tomorrow and it'd be
very nice not to keep this patch under my pillow every time I switch
back and forth to develop and test this or any other plugin .
I look forward to your comments .
