I have at least two objections : - I want to be able to commit a bug fix + associated tests in one revision without having to fetch the whole phase3 tree. It is much easier to track and phase3 has many stuff I do not care about. - Users fetching from SVN are most probably interested in development and will *require* the test suites. Regular user use the tarballs which can be build without the tests suite though. Can't you just ignore the test suites ? I do not care about squid support or utf-normalisation. Should they get moved out of trunk as well? -- Ashar Voultoiz _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
