#2590 sos vcs change: svn to git
Closed: Fixed None Opened 13 years ago by bmr.

= Change Requested =
The sos team would like to switch vcs from SVN to git.

https://fedorahosted.org/sos/

= Reasoning =
We have more contributors now and the current maintainer and newer members of the team are more familiar & comfortable with git than svn.


Hello beloved infrastructure team,

A few elements I believe should be taken into account:

1) Transifex change also required. We don't expect any translated strings to change within the next few weeks/months, but that's only a guess.
2) If easily achievable, the trac svn viewer should remain available for the time being as a few active BZs contain direct links to commits.

With best regards,

ok. I have created a new git repo for you with the 'gitsos' group.

You will need to:

a) add whoever you like to the new gitsos group.

b) import any changes or code from your svn repo. Do you wish to do this? Or would you like us to import it for you?

Finally when everything is ready on the git repo, we can switch trac to use it and the git group.

Hello Kevin,

Sorry for the lag.

We finally pushed everything in git yesterday, you can go ahead and do the trac transition!

I suppose transifex will also need a migration?

Thanks for the follow-up,

ok. I think I have this working...

switching trac was not very clearcut, and I had to recreate the trac instance and re-import your front page.

Please take a look and see if everything looks ok from your side, and if so we can close this.

Looks fine to me, thanks.

Before we close, any idea about transifex?

Not sure.

Does https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ_on_migration_to_Transifex.net
have any of the info you seek?

If not, we may need to get one of the tx folks to help out here...

Hopefully this is all set now?
