Re: [mylyn-dev] How to download End-of-life branches?

[Lucas Amorim <amorimlb@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Thank you very much Sam! I think I was able to obtain the code I need. I just have to clarify one thing:

When running git checkout e_3_3_m_3_1_x  inside the cloned repos, some of them returned this error message: "error: pathspec 'e_3_3_m_3_1_x' did not match any file(s) known to git."

Does this mean that these repositories were not part of the release I am checking out? These are the affected repositories (the ones that couldn't be checked out):

- org.eclipse.mylyn.builds
- org.eclipse.mylyn.context.mft
- org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews
- org.eclipse.mylyn.versions

Thanks!

Hi,

The EOL branches are in the same git repositories as the active branches, so you can just clone each repository listed on that page and run "git checkout e_3_3_m_3_1_x" on each repository to checkout the 3.1.x branch, or "git checkout tags/R_3_1_1" to checkout the 3.1.1 release specifically. Since there was no 3.1.2 release these are probably the same.

Cheers,
Sam

Hello everyone,

I am not a developer, I am just a Computer Science graduate student who
wants to use Mylyn source code as a test subject. :D
I have to download the code for this old Mylyn branch, version
mylyn-3.1.1.v20090411-0400-e3.3, in order to reproduce a research paper (on
Software engeneering)  where the authors analysed Mylyn source code.

As far as I know, I would have to use Git to download, is that right? I have
read this page http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_Contributor_Reference#Checkout
It links the code for the newer versions, but this version is listed as an
End-of-life branch, precisely branch e_3_3_m_3_1_x, but there is no link to
the code and I found no instructions as how to download it.

If you could provide me with a link to a tar or zip of the source code or
just the git command I should use, that would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance.
