Description Thomas Hallgren CLA 2011-05-14 05:34:18 EDT
We would like to migrate the entire code base for Buckminster tools project from our current SVN to Git.

*Migration timeline*
As soon as possible.

*Mapping of current code to new Git repos*
The desired layout is one single git repository with all projects at the root. This is the way it is currently organized under 'trunk' in our SVN repository.

*Existing code*
Existing code should be imported into the new repository

*Repository description*
Source Code for the Buckminster project

What do you want to call your repo?

org.eclipse.buckminster.git ?
Comment 2 Thomas Hallgren CLA 2011-05-15 02:23:22 EDT
Yes, that's a good name.
Comment 3 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2011-05-16 16:13:59 EDT
Do you want to run the import, or would you like me to do it?

-M.
Comment 4 Thomas Hallgren CLA 2011-05-16 16:17:54 EDT
If I have all credentials needed to do it, then I'd like to try by myself. I might learn a thing or two.

A strategy that has worked well Thomas is to create a copy of the repo on GitHub to play with and others verify that things are good. Once that's good, you can push that copy to git.eclipse.org and delete what's on GitHub (e.g., we did this for LinuxTools).
Comment 6 Thomas Hallgren CLA 2011-05-16 16:22:31 EDT
Thanks Chris, I'll try that.
Comment 7 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2011-05-16 16:42:24 EDT
Ok, I've created /gitroot/buckminster for you.
