Dawid Weiss updated LUCENE-6933:
--------------------------------
Description:
Goals:
* selectively drop projects and core-irrelevant stuff:
** {{lucene/site}}
** {{lucene/nutch}}
** {{lucene/lucy}}
** {{lucene/tika}}
** {{lucene/hadoop}}
** {{lucene/mahout}}
** {{lucene/pylucene}}
** {{lucene/lucene.net}}
** {{lucene/old_versioned_docs}}
** {{lucene/openrelevance}}
** {{lucene/board-reports}}
** {{lucene/java/site}}
** {{lucene/java/nightly}}
** {{lucene/dev/nightly}}
** {{lucene/dev/lucene2878}}
** {{lucene/sandbox/luke}}
** {{lucene/solr/nightly}}
* preserve the history of all changes to core sources (Solr and Lucene).
** {{lucene/java}}
** {{lucene/solr}}
** {{lucene/dev/trunk}}
** {{lucene/dev/branches/branch_3x}}
** {{lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x}}
** {{lucene/dev/branches/branch_5x}}
* provide a way to link git commits and history with svn revisions (amend the
log message).
* annotate release tags
* deal with large binary blobs (JARs): keep empty files instead for their
historical reference only.
Non goals:
* no need to preserve "exact" merge history from SVN (see "impossible" below).
* Ability to build ancient versions is not an issue.
Impossible:
* It is not possible to preserve SVN "merge history" because of the following
reasons:
** Each commit in SVN operates on individual files. So one commit can "copy"
(and record a merge) files from anywhere in the object tree, even modifying
them along the way. There simply is no equivalent for this in git.
** There are historical commits in SVN that apply changes to multiple
branches in one commit ({{r1569975}}) and merges *from* multiple branches in
one commit ({{r940806}}).
* Because exact merge tracking is impossible then what follows is that exact
"linearized" history of a given file is also impossible to record. Let's say
changes X, Y and Z have been applied to a branch of a file A and then merged
back. In git, this would be reflected as a single commit flattening X, Y and Z
(on the target branch) and three independent commits on the branch. The
"copy-from" link from one branch to another cannot be represented because, as
mentioned, merges are done on entire branches in git, not on individual files.
Yes, there are commits in SVN history that have selective file merges (not
entire branches).
