Hi all,
Current lp2git migration steps
<https://github.com/OCA/maintainers-tools/wiki/Migration-Launchpad-%E2%86%92-GitHub#migration-steps>
tell you to rename unported modules with a suffix "_unported".
This was a strategy Sandy found to have TravisCI and Flake8 ignore them,
and Guewen included that in the migration docs, and I believe it already
been adopted in some of the migrations to GitHub.
On the other hand, last November we also discussed here
<https://lists.launchpad.net/openerp-community/msg04016.html> a
convention to easily identify unported modules.
I made the proposal to use a subdirectory, since I was working on a
project where most modules were unported and often it wasn't easy to
navigate around.
We eventually agreed that a "__unported__" subdirectory could be used
for that.
I believe at the time most people didn't see that a necessity, so in
practice it was not widely used.
My problem is that the new convention does not solve the initial
problem: uncluttering repo root from unported modules.
And I believe the subdirectory approach is also capable to do what's
needed for TravisCI and Flake8.
So, my opinion is that we shoudl prefer the "__unported__" subdirectory
convention over the "_unported" suffix convention.
I believe the impact on already migrated repos is negligible.
So I open the discussion on this, and of couse will follow whatever
consensus comes out of it.
Best regards,
Daniel Reis
