Re: [vpp-dev] minor doc change

2020-11-29 Thread hemant via lists.fd.io
Elias & Paul,

It was only my opinion to move away from gerrit.  No worries if folks like to 
use gerrit.  It does make sense to remove the github repo if the repo does not 
get updated frequently (daily) and also does not contain up to data info about 
the repo.  For a side note, all U.S. university research uses github, many 
open-source projects do, and many companies have there open source on github. 
I personally prefer using github.

Thanks,

Hemant

Perhaps I should clarify that I did not mean to recommend moving VPP to 
github. On the contrary, I think it is good that the VPP source code is 
managed independently from github and I hope it will stay that way.

My point was just that in the current situation when there is a github mirror, 
it would be good to make that more clear to avoid confusion.
Another way to avoid confusion would be to remove the code from github (that 
would be fine as I see it but of course there will be different opinions about 
that).

That depends on what you mean by "free". It could be argued that there is a 
cost in terms of control over the project and being able to do what you want 
in the future. Moving something to github means partly giving up control.

Best regards,
Elias

Re: [vpp-dev] minor doc change

2020-11-29 Thread Paul Vinciguerra
Hi Hermant,

I had to go back and double check the thread.  Elias said we should make it
clear that it was a mirror, not that the use of Gerrit should be
deprecated.  I don't have the keys to the vpp github account, so I can't
update the message.  It's a good idea, though. +1

I would not support moving from Gerrit, it provides too much value.  You
can always point your upstream repo on your github fork to "
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/vpp; if that helps any.

Another issue.  The github vpp repo doesn't seem to be a mirror to me or the 
mirror is not updated frequently enough.  During the past months, I was 
writing a new VPP plugin.  The code crashed outside of my plugin.  After a day 
or two, I pulled a gerrit vpp repo and using my plugin, the code didn't crash. 
I aw significant differences between the github and gerrit repos at the time.

I agree with Elias.  Long term, maybe use of gerrit is deprecated and github 
is used. Github is free for public repos.

I think it would be good if that could be clarified on the github page.
When people search for "vpp source code" or similar, I think they will often 
end up on the github page and it's not immediately obvious from there that 
it's only a mirror. (People might get the wrong idea about some things, for 
example github shows a "contributors" list which I guess is not accurate as it 
only shows authors who happen to have github accounts that are linked to 
gerrit in some way?)

The github page says, under "About" to the right, "No description, website, or 
topics provided." So there is apparently a possibility to enter a 
"description", perhaps that could be used to indicate that it is just a 
mirror?

I think it would be good if that could be clarified on the github page.
When people search for "vpp source code" or similar, I think they will
often end up on the github page and it's not immediately obvious from
there that it's only a mirror. (People might get the wrong idea about
some things, for example github shows a "contributors" list which I
