Hello Marc
I do not know how long it will take before INFRA take the task. I
suspect that the INFRA team is waiting for decisions from the Apache
board about foundation's policy regarding history rewriting in Git (they
are extensively debating this topic since a few weeks on
[email protected]). I also think that it wasn't clear that this issue was
blocking commits on SIS (probably I should not have flagged this issue
as "minor"). I will add a comment clarifying that point in the hope that
it reach the infra team.
In the meantime, we could create a temporary SVN branch for continuing
the work. If the branch is not mirrored on Git, I think that we will not
have any problem when the branch will be merged to JDK8.
Another possible solution (but it may take more time than the SVN
branch) would be to ask the infra team to fully migrate SIS to Git, if
we have a consensus on this list for that request. In my understanding
of the policy that seems to be emerging, we would be allowed to "push
--force" on branches (but not on master).
What would be your preference?
Martin
