I'd like to try to move forward on getting the distribution files moved over to git. Right now there is a selfupdate-git branch on fink's github repository, but I don't know where we stand on functionality. Last time I used it I was able to update from Daniel J's dists/ mirror, but I didn't try operations like checking in updates and the like.
Max had proposed at one point using git branches to handle distributions instead of the current separate directory trees. Unfortunately, I don't know if at our current manpower levels (especially manpower with sufficient knowledge of git) will allow us to implement this in a timely manner. We definitely are going to want to get _something_ in place. Daniel, if you could reply to this to let folks know how to translate the existing CVS repository so that folks can set up their own github copies of it to test the ability to check updates in and the like, that'd be great. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
