Some thoughts/questions:

- Do we want _another_ git repository for the 2nd donation? This is, what are the advantages/disadvantages of using the same git repository?

- In fact, do we want different repos for different clusters? (PHP / JavaEE, etc.?)

(AFAIK there was a "Experiment: split the main NetBeans repository" at [1], maybe there's something to learn from that experiment?).

- Do we want to finish the "Per Cluster Repository Layout" [2] before importing?

Cheers,
Antonio

Hello,

The 2nd donation is arriving and I wonder how to best import it.

I think it should be a separate branch which we merge into master.

*But* how to we preserve the full history?

The end of the README here 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/blob/master/README.md mentions how 
to do a 'git replace' to 'stitch' back the history.

I suspect that the 2nd donation should be a new branch with not parents. Then 
we merge it into master.

Thus, we can do 'git replace' on the 2nd donation branch too.

What do you think?
