Re: [science-iwg] Eclipse vs. GitHub Code Hosting

[Jonah Graham <jonah@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

This issue has been discussed in the wider community before, there may
be valuable insight there:
https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-committers/msg01095.html.
In addition to the committers mailing list the incubation one has also
had this conversation a bit.

* Which experience do you have using pull requests? Is it easier than Gerrit?
Easier to get started with PRs, but Gerrit is better for reviewing and
gives much better history in the long run. Therefore as an occasional
contributor to another project I would prefer they used GitHub PRs,
but as a regular contributor and as a maintainer I would prefer
Gerrit.

* How do you ensure that people have signed the Eclipse CLA?
Part of validation checks done automatically for all
github.com/eclipse projects: e.g.
https://github.com/eclipse/january/pull/23 has a link in it to
https://dev.eclipse.org/eclipse-webhook/services/status_details.php?id=582d773bbd853

* Does anyone use Travis CI to build the code?
DAWNSci does, and it is on my todo list for January

* If yes, does Travis CI support Maven/Tycho? I read, that Maven is
supported, hence I assume Tycho works as well.
Travis most certainly does.

* How do you sign the plugins?
You can't. You need to use Hudson for that. Other projects use Travis
for PR builds and Hudson for release builds.

* Which ticket/bug tracker do you use when hosting the code at GitHub
(Bugzilla, GitHub Issues)?
January uses GitHub issues. Most projects seem to use the GitHub
issues if they use GitHub for code.

* I also saw that Eclipse promotes Tuleap now. Will it work together
with code hosted on GitHub?
Don't know on this one.

Thanks
Jonah
