I’m OK with it. It would require me to actually update the DoMerges thing, but that’s minor. :-) Few thoughts though: 1) Lets wait until after at least milestone2. We’re close and I don’t want to screw any of that up. 2) I’d LIKE to rebuild the git repo and possibly remove all the /incubator revisions and tags. Kind of “start” at the graduation. Maybe a bit before at the 2.0-incubator release. Or at least all the “lib” dirs out of them. That would chop about 100MB out of the .git directory making it a LOT smaller. The original codebase kept .jar files in the repo which sucks with git. I’m really not sure how much of the history and tags from 2005/2006 is at all important anymore so this is likely not a big deal. Plus, the history is still in SVN if we really need it. -- Daniel Kulp dk...@apache.org - http://dankulp.com/blog Talend Community Coder - http://coders.talend.com
