Description Gunnar Wagenknecht

2010-11-22 03:16:22 EST

The Eclipse CVS repo contains a "pde" module entry in CVSROOT/modules. It also contains a "pde" folder with a different structure. When the Git mirror is taken, the "pde" module is used in favor of the "pde" folder. The produced Git mirror is therefor useless as it contains dead code.

Can we rename the module to "pde-module" or remove it? It isn't useful at all because it points to dead code anyway.

Comment 1 Gunnar Wagenknecht

BTW, which command line do you use for Git mirroring?

I tried the following:
git cvsimport -p -x -v -k -o cvshead -s _ -d :local:/cvsroot/eclipse -C pde.git pde

Comment 2 Denis Roy

I use a script to create one repo per ... pde component? since /cvsroot/eclipse/pde contains ds, ua, ui, build, doc, apitools, etc.

Perhaps it's better if it's all on one directory?

When I look at the mirror list I get:

The script seems to generate one Git repo per sub-directory. I think the "ds, ua, ui, build, doc, apitools" level looks interesting. Can you fix the script to only generate repos for those?

Either one "giant" pde repo or 5 separate repos per sub-component would be nice to have. The "plugin" level which is currently available is too fine.

Wow, what a mess.  I'm running a fresh import now with the 5 repos setup.  Let's see how that looks.

PDE was cut down to this:

git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/apitools.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/build.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/doc.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/ds.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/org.eclipse.pde.releng.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/ua.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/ui.git
git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.pde/visualization.git


Give it a try, let me know how it works out.

Works like a charm. Thanks Denis!
