[git-users] Re: Odd performance problem with git diff
Yay! These .svn folders are causing havoc to our workspace in general. Amazing how much they slow it down. Another good reason to switch to git :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

[git-users] Git on Android
Hello, My name is Sebastián Ventura and I'll be aplying to port git to Android for this Summer of Code. Because of that, I would like to hear what users thinks it's most important to have in this port (aside from core git) and how would they like to access it. I mean, do people expect to have a really nice GUI? Or just a simple command-line would work? Do you want to have easy access to github or other webpages? Answers to questions like that would really help me in my quest to do the porting. Thank you so much for your reading.

[git-users] Re: Git on Android
Wow, that sounds ambitious :) Personally, I don't have an Android device, and I imagine if I did, I probably wouldn't use it much for development, hence I wouldn't need Git support on it (I would probably use DropBox for storing files and stuff). Maybe, if I had larger tablet, it would be interesting to do some occasional code review on it - so, priority on the read-only commands, I would say (clone, checkout, log, etc). That being said, I would probably use a web application like Gerrithttp://code.google.com/p/gerrit/for doing code-review, so not really a need for any Anroid-Git there. I trust you're aware of the JGit http://eclipse.org/jgit/ project, porting this to run on Android could maybe be a good starting point. So, going back to using Git as a kind of storage/sync thing, it would be nice to be able to push/pull easily between my device and my PC, or other device. Imagine it's a bit like a usb-stick, with the power of Git. Say, I'm doing some programming on my PC at home, then I want to bring my project to Uni. I just push the code to my Android tablet. I bring it to Uni and show the teacher, eventually handing it in by pushing it onto his Git repository. (If you've got Internet at home, this scenario is a bit moot, but I'm trying to be creative :)). GitHub has such an awesome web surface, that I'm not really sure what an Android app would add there. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] Subdirectories and Continuous Integration
On Fri, Apr 1, 2011 at 2:54 PM, Barry dive...@gmail.com wrote: Hello everyone, We just started using git, and have an issue with our continuous integration builds. We use CruiseControl, and have one git repository that consists of many applications that are individually built. Right now, when any change is made to a branch all applications that are building in CruiseControl are built and the modification list contains all changes for the branch. The behavior that we are used to is if a change is made in an application, CruiseControl will only build that application (not all apps from that branch) and report only the modifications to that app (not all changes on the branch). Is it possible to do this with git? Our repo essentially looks like: Basedir/app1 /app2 /app3 /internal/app4 /internal/app5 /partner/external/app6 /partner/external/app7 So we have a number of applications that make up our repository, but they are not all at the same directory level. And our CruiseControl will build app1, app2, app3, app4, and so on. We treat each app as its own project and would like to map that into CruiseControl so that a change in app2 will only build app2 and not show modifications that were made in app4. Thanks for taking the time to read this and for any help you may be able to provide, Barry I'm not familiar with setting up CruiseControl, but in general the svn-style organization of one repo with subdirs for projects doesn't work too well with git -- to put it simply, git doesn't care about directories, and svn only cares about directories. Your apps can live in separate repositories and make use of submodules (kinda like svn:external). It's a bit more setup, and it might be hard to do so as a big transition at once type of thing, but I highly doubt that you'll want to keep the central-repo layout as you go forward. You should note that I am speaking from ignorance here -- I've never been a fan of the single repo anyhow, and I haven't tried, nor would I try to use git like that. Someone else who knows more about that than I might come in and actually give you advice as to your desired setup, or just getting CruiseControl to play nice with it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.
