Yes my bad you're right. Tools have their own git repo and so does xwiki-platform-modules. Now the question is whether we want a special repo for distribution or should we put inside xwiki-platform-modules and thus consider it as a module. WDYT? I'm open to both although having a repo for 1 file sounds maybe a bit too much... ;) Thanks -Vincent > >> >> platform/ >> |_ core >> |_ modules >> |_ distribution >> |_ tools >> >> which is not very nice at all. >> >> The other option is to move out tools but there's no better place than >> platform since it's related to plartform. >> >> WDYT? >> >> Thanks >> -Vincent >> >>> Migration details >>> ============= >>> >>> * Change the current org in git >>> * Move several jira projects to retired >>> * Modify platform jira project to have one jira component per feature (ie >>> per platform/modules module).
