Description Benjamin Muskalla CLA 2011-08-16 13:01:21 EDT
With bug 296082 resolved, we should go ahead and provide a psf for the mylyn projects.

Steffen, I wonder how to slice the psfs for the different projects. I could imagine to have one of the "classic" mylyn part (eg. tasks, context, connectors, bridges) and then one for each subproject (builds, reviews, versions).
Comment 1 Steffen Pingel CLA 2011-08-16 14:48:08 EDT
Are you going to maintain the PSF files :)? More seriously, is there support for generating these from a git repository? In the past it was quite a bit of overhead to keep PSF files up to date.

I think we should consider a separate PSF for each project (targeted at contributors) and an aggregate that has all projects (targeted at committers).
Comment 2 Benjamin Muskalla CLA 2011-08-16 18:36:46 EDT
Can have a look at this while testing the psf support.

I don't think there is. You should be able to do this with a simple script.

I'm afraid it hasn't changed since. The good news is that you can now select a plug-in from you running platform and do Import As > Project from a Repository. This is an overkill if you want to setup a dev env like this.

I don't see much value in this. To be honest, I wouldn't bother importing a psf file if I had an option to simply clone a repo with all the projects I need. OTOH, an aggregate with working sets defined sounds handy to me.

Moving to backlog as cloning works well enough.

Mylyn has been restructured, and our issue tracking has moved to GitHub [1].

We are closing ~14K Bugzilla issues to give the new team a fresh start. If you feel that this issue is still relevant, please create a new one on GitHub.
