I think the first step here is to get an account created for stefw. Just follow the normal accounts procedure there. (You can probably vouch for yourself as a maintainer...) Once that's working that you can request at [email protected] to disable the nnielsen account. What we aren't going to do is rename the old account or delete it - that would create all sorts of potential problems. Once the stefw account is created you can ask krh to adjust his mapping table to map 'krh' commits onto Stef Walters <[email protected]>. The Committer: in will be right. If you've pasted the ChangeLog entries into the log entries, then whatever is in there will appear as Author:, since we extract Author from the svn log entries when possible. (I actually got krh to adjust the map table to map owen => otaylor since I used to use 'owen' in CVS in the distant past...) > * The seahorse-plugins repository [2] should probably end up as it's > own module rather than sharing one with seahorse. > > How would I go about accomplishing the above points?

It shouldn't be a problem (other than figuring out the magic invocation) for you to use git-filter-branch after the import to extract a subtree and then you can import that yourself as a new module. That reminds me, we need to check with murrayc as to whether he is happy with: http://git.gnome.org/cgit/preview/gnomemm/ Which also has that separate-trunks issue. - Owen _______________________________________________ gnome-infrastructure mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-infrastructure
