Re: [gef-dev] Migration to Git repository

Hi Alexander

Migrating the entire GEF/Draw2d/Zest
repository from CVS to Git at the same time you create the GEF
4 branch within Git is likely a great
idea.

This will however increase the pressure
on the build team to change the build from CVS to Git. 

Ian was going to work on the "new
build" during Indigo, not sure that the progress is ( http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/gef-dev/msg01400.html
).

Cheers...
Anthony

Hi all,

I noticed that the Platform is moving its sources to Git
this Juli (see my last comment int https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=347636).
While we had already planned to create the new 4.0 provisional branch within
a Git repository, wouldn't it be an option to migrate the GEF cvs repository
to Git as well beforehand? That would probably make it pretty easy to create
the GEF 4 branch within Git, while we could probably also better apply
patches to all our then existing branches (3.x head, 3.7 maintenance, 4.0
provisional).

Cheers
Alexander
