This directory is not supposed to be empty. After a discussion on the mailing list, Ralph added a file called .placeholder there, for exactly this reason. The commit was 17648. Maybe someone can synchronize the git tree with the latest svn ...

Cool -- thanks Roland!

For anyone who wants to play with the entire history of OMPI in git
(as of last night or so -- this git repository is *not* being kept in
sync with SVN), I cloned the tree that Roland created and put it here:

    http://www.open-mpi.org/~jsquyres/unofficial/ompi.git

So you can:

    git clone http://www.open-mpi.org/~jsquyres/unofficial/ompi.git

And then work with local git operations from there.
It is very useful! Is it possible to sync it with SVN nightly?
The only problem I have with it is that git doesn't track empty
directories and autogen.sh fails without ompi/mca/io/romio/romio/ confdb.

<http://utsl.gen.nz/talks/git-svn/intro.html> has some interesting
info about svn->git conversions (and svn vs. next-gen distibuted

Also, out of curiousity I tried doing

  git-svn clone --stdlayout http://svn.open-mpi.org/svn/ompi/

and it seemed to work fine (git-svn is part of the main git
distribution).  The only obvious thing missing is that you would
probably want to set up an author file for a real conversion, so that
you get real names instead of just "jsquyres".  It took a while to
run, mostly because it has to grab each svn changeset one by one.

The interesting thing is that a checkout of the current ompi tree
seems to be about 37 MB, while .git directory of my repository, which
has the entire history of all branches of the svn repository plus
1.6MB of svn metadata is 36 MB.  And git can do fun stuff like

  git diff v1.1..v1.2

in half a second (it generates a 274858 line diff).  It can generate
the full 116320 line (11164 commit) log of the trunk in .3 seconds.

Jeff, if you want to see the repository, it is in

  /data/home/roland/ompi.git

Feel free to make it available however you want (it's your data of
course).
