I'm generally in favour of the move to git, but I have a question. At the moment, I bake a subset of Jena .jars into my jena-jruby project (https://rubygems.org/gems/jena-jruby). I do this by svn co'ing the jena-tdb module, and then getting mvn to download the dependencies specified in the module's pom.
I don't think it would be appropriate or useful to bake all of Jena into the project (I could be persuaded otherwise, but Fuseki, for example, doesn't seem to fit). Git, in my experience, has difficulty letting you check out just part of the project tree. Any suggestion as to how I could adapt my approach to work with a gitified Jena? Ian
