Hi all, Reminder: voting on the migration to github ends tomorrow.
I've done a dry run migration here: https://github.com/cwilper/fcrepo-dryrun You can clone it pretty quickly via: git clone git://github.com/cwilper/fcrepo-dryrun.git You'll notice that the repository above only contains about the last year's worth of history. Fedora 3.3 (released in December '09) was the first release in which libraries were no longer included in the source tree. Making the cut of history at this point is key to making cloning/forking the "whole" repository practical. Of course, it's still useful in some cases to have the older history available for easy analysis/browsing. The best option I've found so far for this hinges on a feature of git called grafting. Grafting allows you to update your local copy of the commit graph by specifying a new parent for any commit. Among other things, this makes it possible to connect the tail of one repository to the head of (a snapshot of) another -- without propagating such changes outside your local copy. If the vote passes, I think it would probably make sense to have two git repositories: the one that most people use, which contains everything from 3.3 onward, and a pre-3.3 one, which is quite a bit bigger, and contains everything else. Instructions and/or a script could be provided to do the grafting for people who want to. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What happens now with your Lotus Notes apps - do you make another costly upgrade, or settle for being marooned without product support?
