Okay, it's getting serious now with the switch to git. There's now a test repo at
https://github.com/danielnaber/languagetool-test If you're going to use git after we make the switch (you can also still use svn), please clone this and test it. If there's anything wrong with its history, we only have now to get it right. That repo is a few days old. I will update it when we make the switch. Known Issues: * Which email address should be used? Git requires names and email addresses. For now, I have imported everybody with their usern...@users.sourceforget.net address. Let me know if you prefer a different address for your commits. * What about special characters in real names? I couldn't find information whether git properly supports those, so I have used only ASCII characters. For example: Marcin Miłkowski -> Marcin Milkowski. Let me know if there's a problem with that (affected names: Jaume Ortolà i Font, Marcin Miłkowski, Susana Sotelo Docío, Ionuț Păduraru) * As mentioned, history with "git log" is incomplete, it needs the --follow parameter, so IDEA and probably other IDEs need a bash script to replace the "git log" command to add --follow * The --follow option uses heuristics and can cause strange results, namely showing a "history" for classes that were newly introduced (found that to be that case with JnaTools.java) * Some files that were once manually copied lost their history, it then ends in April because we made the switch to Maven. Most files should have their history back to 2005 though (with --follow). * Branches and tags have not been imported, as I want to keep the clone small. So please test the clone carefully and let me know of any problems. Also let know if you tested it and everything looks fine.
