I managed to install SubGit (a bidirectional Git ↔ SVN gateway) a few months ago. It seems very nice but I wasn't crazy about the idea of managing our current repository count times two. I think we should just switch over to Git in the near term but I'd like to hear everyone's opinion on this. If you would be severly impacted by moving to Git please respond to the list or let me know privately. Otherwise I'll start planning the switch for later this summer.Moving to Github. Assuming we switch to Git it would be possible to host the official repository at Github.Advantates: - I'm not sure that an in-house equivalent (e.g. Gerrit plus a private repository) would be better than what Github offers.Yes, Gerrit is better than github: http://julien.danjou.info/blog/2013/rant-about-github-pull-request-workflow-implementation An additional argument for Gerrit which is not in Danjou's rant is that Gerrit's way of doing things helps with bisection: Because rebasing is a PITA in github, pull-requests are fixed (e.g. after a peer review) by adding more commits on top of the existing commits, which is bad for bisecting, as all the broken commits are still visible in the history. On the other hand Gerrit help having a very clean history, very close to what is achieved in the Linux kernel by using git send-email. Bonus: The integration with Jenkins for automatic build when a patchset is uploaded for review.
Second bonus: Gerrit 2.6, which was released yesterday, have a complete RESTful API. That was one advantage github had until now (my experience with github is that at the end, you do most of the work using curl and the RESTful API). - -- Marc Petit-Huguenin Email: marc () petit-huguenin org Blog: http://blog.marc.petit-huguenin.org Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/petithug -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJRxccyAAoJECnERZXWan7EFIMQAOAmGIWlqiWfgCuAz/8jPWWu 4eYj0OexXOzuoj46SIvDpVdMKPntUDH/179Okk3efYEwXp061723DbMX0HqAyJ4Z 0e/ycM754ODbvszzIDaOdclNY9IPBLS9ojBHk7tF6OnGXDjPXs8Osh4irMrDNk5x j/dCyDjeb4UBx+E44uCCPNam77IvnbX9N5ng3WGt3T9YyJck+mj9HmPMCE6H/7am MwCzh0fYw2RTahdyAKpO997tq1+GVIjoFZbIUEX+mbSiP/Rms7IPyNhksbgpfwIl qfP7qI/mqJRNctOKt6Sh2l9cyo+44j9gkRjixK/LD0GEzINK+Tn/gAkXUisT1zOL q/uwWqnA1hwaP3ZdoG30akwXgLybiSRQZefqmuNgLN3pQewlTrnw9ZS9fB9j7ttr e/0FY3CR6Xmb6LO2gsg42vqydNB0RSl7QY9N2nPJRg0X8DLm0DrD7adkbP0G9Q+o xzV+I0Q6QzGCti9+PJpK29zWzElpMFEpS4b7xZxq/4vWC8kCDpZk58JM/FGhE/QM cezrMdOKmoZZfBFvwiuZf/Y0TszHjAEIWb1nGi6s8znXqrdO16iOUmAf5neQlnx0 BfftJ+xOz7qtag0l4MrSzOfiGYqJg75LpWFphWo6NlBNHd/QgbFWD9lBKgd160r3 +tDqO6alk7+d4jgI9mxj =vCHf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
