Hi list, My binary-meta project is probably far enough along now to be useful. I've been moving / copying the opensync SVN repos into git, and hosting them on the repo.or.cz server, as forks under the existing opensync repo.
The existing opensync repo which is already on repo.or.cz is a bit old, having not been updated. My goal, so far, is to keep the git repos that I'm tracking, up to date with changes from SVN that I see, but I may not push back my changes to SVN. This is partly because I needed to break the cmake-modules externals stuff to get it nicely into git, and partly because I don't like SVN. :-) Yes, this means that if I do any substantial work on opensync, that it is effectively forked on the source code level. Sorry. SVN is not powerful enough for what I want to do. If you are interested you can view the git repos here: http://repo.or.cz/w/opensync.git They are listed at the bottom. If you want to build, checkout the binary-meta fork here: http://repo.or.cz/w/opensync/binary-meta.git This contains git submodules that point to the other repos. By following the README in binary-meta, you can build binary packages for all the trees and plugins that I'm tracking. Also, if I GPG sign the binary-meta repo, I've effectively signed the rest of the supported trees as well, for those who like that kind of thing. Opensync development has been almost non-existant as of late, so some may question my efforts. But this is my vision of having the entire opensync tree, with plugins, available for a massive recompile at a moment's notice. I think opensync needs to be more like the linux kernel, where all plugins are a part of the tree. So far, with the binary-meta setup, each repo is still separate, yet can be compiled as a whole. Plus, we can release binary packages at any time. There's still work to be done, but feel free to play around with it, and feel free to fork my repos on repo.or.cz and fix things and let me know. And feel free to ask questions. :-) Thanks, - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!
