1. +1 no problem to move to git
2. +1 to not move deprecated plugins and keep it in svn (attic)
3. +0 you can use git-modules and it's not a big deal to have git tag
(it's just a tag)

Hi
Our maven-plugins repository
(http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/maven-plugins/) contains following
plugins:
* checksum-maven-plugin
* depends-maven-plugin
* docs-maven-plugin
* features-maven-plugin
* jbi-maven-plugin
* res-maven-plugin
* servicemix-build
* xfire-maven-plugin
1. What do you think about migrating the plugin repository to git
(servicemix-maven-plugins)?
2. The most of these plugins are connected to the obsolete technologies (like
jbi-maven-plugin) or have been moved to other projects (like
features-maven-plugin). As far as I know, the depends-maven-plugin is the only
plugin which is currently often used (but perhaps I miss something). Can we
assume, all the plugins
(except depends-maven-plugins) are obsolete and will be not
developed/maintained anymore? If so, I would propose to include in the git
repository only the plugins, which we will still maintain. Which of the above
plugins (besides depends-maven-plugins) should we include in the new repo? Of
course, if one needs a
change in one of the obsolete plugins, the sources will be still available
in svn repository.
3. I was chatting with Christian and we agreed that the multi-module git
repos with separate releases for each module (like bundles) generate awful
tags, containing not only the released module but the whole repo. We must live
with this in the bundles repo, because of the huge number of bundles. But we
have not too
many plugins. What do you think about separating the plugins in separate
repos (e.g. servicemix-depends-maven-plugin)?
Kindly regards
Krzysztof
