I just think that there's high chance that migration away from bzr will happen in the future anyway, thus the proposal. I will unconditionally accept any strong objections. > Also what about the pain of a) converting the repo and b) converting all > the private repos out there? if it where, like, svn just migrate (if > possible without losing a thing) and you are fine. DVCS instead need > a way bigger involvement to migrate! Bzr to git migration is very easy. The commands are very similar to the following script: # we are in <..>/kicad.bzr mkdir ../tmp.git && cd ../tmp.git git init --bare bzr fast-export ../kicad.bzr <branch> | git fast-import mkdir ../kicad.git git clone ../tmp.git # current dir has a git-to-bzr clone The above may contain some errors or typos as I don't have the exact script that I used to convert several other fairly large projects at hand. Thus I believe even private repo migration shouldn't involve more than several minutes of developers time.
