Hi all,
I've experimented a bit more with converting the auctex CVS repository
to git, and it seems to work out fine. The history looks good and
complete, and the files in a CVS checkout equal the files in a git
working copy, except that $Id$ strings somehow got mangled. In CVS, you
have
$Id: preview.el,v 1.286 2011/01/23 18:53:55 angeli Exp $
whereas in a git WC you have
$Id: preview.el,v 1.286 2011-01-23 18:53:55 angeli Exp $
Not much of an issue. I think we should get rid of these Id expansion
thingies because they don't make much sense in a dVCS.
Another thing is that there are still a few committers I couldn't
identify. Basically, every committer listed on the savannah project
page is listed with his full name and email address, but I don't have
information about these guys:
Author: alanshutko <alanshutko>
Author: amanda <amanda>
Author: arafune <arafune>
Author: dakas <dakas>
Author: dominik <dominik>
Author: krab <krab>
Author: kurt <kurt>
Author: nabe <nabe>
Author: nixsf <nixsf>
Author: uid66762 <uid66762>
Author: uid66917 <uid66917>
Author: uid67813 <uid67813>
Author: uid69014 <uid69014>
If anyone knows one of them, please drop me a mail.
You can play around with the converted git repository.
$ git clone http://tsdh.org/auctex.git
If you find some problem, please report back.
If nobody objects or finds an issue, I'm planning to do the switch to
git on savannah anytime soon.
Bye,
Tassilo
