Badging should be possible, I'm not sure right now we have an example of deprecated projects which are in GitHub. If someone wanted to point me to one, I could check why it's not badged properly.
A few additional thoughts/questions: - As an interim, could we prepend deprecated / obsolete repos with a H1 to the effect of "This module has been [deprecated|replaced] [link to new module / discussion" - Ideally, to support badging / displaying the deprecated repositories together they should be in the aggregator/default.xml list - Ideally, the master branch of the repository would contain the code at the final state for the project before deprecation -- that way we can read it in the badge generator and modules list scripts - Ideally, we'd also keep an authoritative list of the repos which are deprecated so we can drive the list and badges off that On Tue, Jan 15, 2019 at 4:55 AM Stefan Seifert <sseif...@pro-vision.de> wrote: > i think as well we should not delete the git repository. > adding a badge makes sense. > > additionally in github there is an option to "archive" a repository [1] - > it's then set to readonly for everyone and github displays a label > "Archived" in the repository list and a warning message if anything from > the repo itself is displayed. if need arise it can be un-archived as well. > i suppose this can only be done by infra. > > stefan > > [1] https://help.github.com/articles/archiving-a-github-repository/ > > >-----Original Message----- > >From: Carsten Ziegeler [mailto:cziege...@apache.org] > >Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2019 10:49 AM > >To: dev@sling.apache.org > >Subject: How to we handle deprecated modules? > > > >Hi > > > >with svn we moved deprecated/obsolete modules to the attic > > > >How do we handle this now with git? > > > >The thread at [1] seems to suggest batches. > > > >I personally don't like having git repositories around which should not > >be used.
