That's problem is solved by applying this policy naming

Because in the withboard projects we don't use jira (at least the moment) "bug/jira-#2342" doesn't work, "whiteboard/fthomas" is the same than "fthomas". It goes beyond that, the pattern should be <UserNameProjectNameBranchName>, but it's still to risky to go by convention IMO.

That's problem is solved by applying this policy naming:

master
develop
whiteboard/fthomas
whiteboard/cdutz
whiteboard/mclean
feature/add-maven-descriptor
feature/add-installer-fp-download
feature/add-fp-download
bug/jira-#2342

...
using nominal branches, which are structured to manage virtual folders

Again, if folks have several projects and those projects several branches as it common using GIT, without strict maming convention, the list of the branches which can grow a lot will mess the people to retreive even their own branch, imagine :

fthomas
cdutz
mclean
feature_add_maven_descriptor
feature_add_installer_fp_download
feature_add_fp_download

Can you say for sure from those branches, which ones goes with which user/project ?

Why is this a better option?

each one got its own space and can do whatever he wants.

I could live with leaving the whiteboard in SVN.

Me too.

Hi,

I agree with you Justin, each persons branch is a bad pratice, the repo
can really get quickly messy, I wouldn't take this risk.

Describe 'messy', please.  I am not sure what the concern is.

Maybe one repo by person is not feasible, how do we know without asking ?

Why is this a better option?

If it's not feasible, I would stay in SVN too and if I really want to
work with GIT, I would use git-svn clone, it takes a bit of time to setup
but once done, it works like a charm.

This is probably why no other project has whiteboards in git.

Thanks,

Hi,

I vote for creating a branch for each committer under whiteboard. Anyone
else want to chime in?

By branch I assume you mean repo not sure if everyone having their own
branch make sense as each persons branch would contain different files etc
etc.

But currently using git for the white board area is basically unusable
(unless you have high speed access) , so we either keep it in SVN or create repo for each committer however I'm not sure Infra would go for that second
option.
