Re: [mylyn-dev] plan for git migration

[Steffen Pingel <steffen.pingel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, the git repositories reflect the current project structure that
we established when made Mylyn a top-level project. To keep it simple
I am proposing to use only one repository per sub-project each of
which has its own set of committers.

Each repository will contain a framework component and corresponding
bridges/connectors: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn/Architecture . I am
planning to setup the build to work independently for each repository
so that contributors interested in working on a subset of Mylyn, e.g.
the Builds framework, do not need to checkout 7 different
repositories.
