Re: [rkward-devel] select feature for data editor
Hi!

Possible in principle, but a bunch of code currently works on the assumption that there can only be one contiguous selection (copying, pasting while a selection is active, deleting while a selection is active). Each of these will have to be adjusted, carefully. There are also some tricky questions attached, such as how should Paste inside selection work in this case: Should selection gaps be skipped in the data to paste, or should the data to paste be shifted? Not something I'd like to start on, now. Could you put in on the RFE tracker?

Not sure, whether this would strictly fall under the continuity requirement of KDE.org, but it certainly should not be a problem to give KDE sysadmins admin access to this. If I understand it correctly you plan to move the source code to KDE's git repos and have another close/copy of the repo on github.com. I don't see a problem. How will you merge features? You might as well use reviewboard.kde.org to encourage contributions by people that don't yet have a KDE developer account. For the rest, the plan is roughly as follows, I think: 1. Prepare any required formalities. Mario, please comment. I don't see much formalitites so: done ;-). 2. Give KDE sysadmins admin access to the SF-project, in order to ensure continuity in case we diasppear in the middle of the transition. Mario, I'm sure, there is an SF-account for this, already.

This one should not happen too early, as there are non- redirecting links to the bug tracker in all RKWard versions up to 0.6.1. Sounds reasonable. Well, 1 and 2 should not take much time, I hope. For moving to git, here are some things we need to take care of / decide: - SVN author accounts have to be converted to git format, i.e. full name and email address. For those planning or considering to commit in the future, this should match the email used for your identity.kde.org account (if you don't have one, yet, get one, now!). Even if you do not plan to register at identity.kde.org (yet), it may still make sense to provide a current email address. I'll contact all past and present committers, and will fall back to accountn...@users.sf.net. - branches/external_plugins needs to be split out, somehow, as it is not really a branch in the git-sense. As noted above, it probably makes sense to import this branch to github.com. In fact, there is little reason not to go ahead on this one, yet. Volunteers? - branches/jss_dec_10 needs to be split, out, too. This branch is interesting for archiving, only. - Seasoned git users, please advise: Is there any point in keeping obsoleted release-branches, and fully merged development branches, or should these simply be dropped in the import? Or would they be dropped _after_ the import, in order to keep full commit history? - Beyond this, there is quite a bit of inconsistency regarding naming of branches and tags. I'd like to fix that. Is that best to be done before, during, or after the import? Ok, not much I can help other than finding people with knowledge about this. - Finally, I'm not sure, whether there are any uniform push-rules for git repositories on KDE.org. Mario? We certainly want to block non-fast-forwarded commits. But beyond this I don't really have a clue on git administration. Anybody? The KDE sysadmin will help you and tell about our infrastructure with their hooks and possibilities. Well, enough to chew on for one mail. We'll worry about steps 4

Is that best to be done before, during, or after the import? In general it's best not to move things around in SVN now. For example, if branches have inconsistent names, we need to put those inconsistent names in the conversion rules anyway in order to get the history, so renaming them now only makes the conversion more complex. External plugins can be easily split into separate git repositories during the same conversion. For the rest, I'd have to look at the SVN history to give definite answers. Where is the repository, in Sourceforge? Is it possible to clone the SVN repository (not a checkout, the actual repo with all the history) via rsync or something? If not, I can use svnsync, but that takes longer :) - Finally, I'm not sure, whether there are any uniform push-rules for git repositories on KDE.org. Mario? We certainly want to block non-fast-forwarded commits. Non-fast-forward pushes (force pushes) and branch deletions are only allowed for the repository owners. You'll have to decide who that will be. -- Nicolás -- ___ RKWard-devel mailing list RKWard-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rkward-devel
