OLPC-2 from memory was Fedora 7 based. OLPC-3 was possibly Fedora 9

I have the same issue. I believe, that someting about the naming of the
branches was changed, so fedpkg is running into trouble.

We have just over 10K repos to convert, and nearly 200 are done already. I'm employing a second host to help conversion to cut down on the over all outage time. Is there a running status report somewhere? Peter Not really, but I can give a quick update. Over 10K repos have been converted, but I do have to run a script over those repos and make sure the conversion actually succeeded. We've also gotten dist-f14, dist-f13, dist-f12, and el6 in a state that we can build with, however we do have to do some bootstrapping of el4/5. I have yet to look at OLPC-2/3. We have run into some trouble with the kernel repo so I'm attempting some different conversion options, with a final fallback position of creating empty git repos and importing the last built srpms for each branch. We've also identified some issues with gitweb that we are working on, however this is not critical functionality and can be set aside until after the outage. Today's work will consist of getting el4/5 buildable, getting updates pushed with a good production build of fedpkg, mass branching git and turning on the buildsystem again. Another update. I've moved all the repos we have converted into the production rpms directory. This is read/write now. I'm also in the process of branching all of them for f14, but as this doesn't generate any email, and I trust git to not screw things up this doesn't require any outage. Once the branching is done I'm going to update what 'dist-rawhide' targets so that builds from master will go to dist-f15, the next rawhide. I'll also build a new fedora-release for dist-f14/f15 that sets up the dist tags correctly. el4/5 has been boot strapped so we can build there, although fedpkg doesn't really work on el4. We've taken some... extreme shortcuts to get the buildsystem to work. If somebody wants to work on porting fedpkg to el4, be my guest :) We were not able to successfully convert the kernel repo, so I'm going to do the last ditch effort of creating an empty repo and importing the last srpm. We are getting very close to calling this conversion good enough to run with. A bigger announcement will come then.

Jesse Another dumb question. I uploaded a package, frama-c. Will it be included in 14. Sent from my iPhone On Jul 24, 2010, at 2:54 AM, Jesse Keating jkeat...@redhat.com wrote: Hey all! It's that time again, we're gearing up to branch for Fedora 14 this coming Tuesday! There is a major twist this time around, we're going to attempt a roll out of dist-git! Dist-git is our replacement for the CVS system we are currently using. This is a pretty big deal, but we're going to try to make it as smooth as possible. In the next few days I'll be finalizing our git server setup and polishing up the user interface tool you all will be using to interact with the source control and build system. The conversion will take a couple days, which means our normal short outage for branching will be a bit extended. I wish there was another way, but converting over 9K cvs repos into git repos does take some time. I really feel that this move is worth the extended outage. The tool you all will use to interact with git and the buildsystem is called fedpkg. It comes from the fedora-packager package. There is a version of it available now in all active Fedora and EPEL releases, although it is built to work against our staging environment where we have been testing the setup for a while. This setup is slightly different than the final version, but you can install it and poke around the help system to get a feel for what's going on. Most of the make targets have made it over and are named the same; build, sources, srpm, etc... Many of the targets can take arguments and options. Where the make system used shell variables, fedpkg uses options and arguments. Each target takes a --help argument that will show any available options. Fedpkg does not yet have a man page, that may be coming soon. We're also going to be working on wiki pages to document the new stuff and archive the old stuff. We're going to need help on this too, so if you want to pitch in, by all means! As I mentioned above, this is an attempt. We are trying this pretty early, which I wouldn't normally do. However we have a good roll back plan. We are going to keep the CVS server as is, although turned read-only during and after the dist-git rollout. If something fails beyond reasonable repair with the dist-git attempt we will re-enable write access to the CVS server (after we branch it for Fedora 14). Otherwise we will keep it around, in some capacity, as a read-only reference point. I'm certain we will run into some bumps along the way, and some wrinkles to iron out. I ask that you are patient with us as we work through these, and as we either get updates pushed out of fedpkg or make adjustments to the git repos on the git server. This transition has been a long time coming, and I'm really happy to be the one to make it happen. Keep in mind that this will be the first iteration of our transition, and it will operate mostly the same as dist-cvs did with a few improvements. Later on we will start to explore more interesting advancements such as automatic patch management with exploded sources, linking to upstream source repositories, automatic %changelog generation from git changelogs, or things I haven't even thought about. Most of all, we won't be using CVS any more and that feels really good to me. If you're curious about how the new system will work or have concerns, or want to help, you can reply to this email thread or find me on IRC as Oxf13 (that's an o, not a zero). If you run across bugs in fedpkg, you can file them in the fedora-packager hosted trac space https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-packager/ or just find me on IRC as well.

I'm just curious but would this allow someone to more easily fork the
distro? (think of stuff like Mint)
The ability to fork {packages|kernels|distros} is a good thing. It
keeps the software lively and keeps the purveyors of software honest.
I enjoyed reading Rick Moen's essay on the subject:
http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Licensing_and_Law/forking.html
Also, of course, one of the truisms about git is that it doesn't only
make it easier to *fork*: it makes it easier to *merge*. So even if the
change does let people fork Fedora more easily, it also lets us
incorporate their changes and bring them back into mainline more easily
too.
