Richard N. Hillegas commented on DERBY-7162:


Apache Derby is an old project maintained by old engineers who use old tools. 
Our code is maintained in subversion. None of the active committers accept 
contributions via git.

I don't remember who created this git mirror. Clearly no-one volunteered to 
keep it evergreen.

That said, I have no objection to periodic, automatic updates of this git 
mirror provided that

1) I don't have to do anything more than make one request to INFRA to make it 
so.

2) It is understood that the Derby project considers this to be a read-only 
mirror.

3) It is further understood that the Derby project will ignore this mirror and 
all forks from it.

If that is an acceptable situation, then I will need someone to tell me what I 
need to do to enable it.

 Summary: Update Git mirror for db-derby. Current mirror is out of 
date, hasn't been updated since 2019
 Key: DERBY-7162
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-7162
 Project: Derby
  Issue Type: Bug
  Components: Build tools
Reporter: Bob Neugebauer


There is an existing GIT mirror for DB-DERBY available at 
[https://github.com/apache/derby] however this mirror is out of date. Last 
commit was Aug 2019. This mirror is missing all branches and tags that the 
derby SVN repo contains.

I had opened an INFRA ticket INFRA-25623 to request an update to git but Chris 
said this had to come from the derby maintainers.


I have a project that is using derby, in particular 10.17, and I am looking for 
the best way to avoid having our build servers hit ASF frequently to pull from 
SVN. Using a git fork would seem the best way to achieve this.

 

Thanks, Bob
