Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Plan to remove XWiki Enterprise
Just some mentions about these removes/moves: - We moved before things from XE to Platform. It's a pain if you want to 'blame' the source and in the JIRA issue we don't have a link from where the page was moved from. Tracking the history for a moved page is difficult and a comment stating where the location was is useful. - What will happen with the history if we remove the XE repository? Although the history + the blame use case might not be interesting for everyone, myself I'm using it often to understand the initial purpose of the feature, to determine if it's a regression, to know which person to contact, etc. Do we have a strategy for keeping the history somehow?

Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Plan to remove XWiki Enterprise
I usually use https://github.com/git/git/tree/master/contrib/subtree for this kind of things, it's starting to be a bit old but it work well. For example I used it when moving deprecated platform modules to their own repository on contrib like https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/xwiki-platform-wiki-manager.
