[CMake] [ANNOUNCE] CMake has moved to Git!

2010-02-22 Thread Brad King
Hi Folks,

Kitware has moved to distributed version control for CMake in order to
better engage our growing community of developers and users.  It will
enhance our process for accepting patches and help give credit to all
contributors.

We've chosen Git to implement this move.  Details appear here:

  http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake/Git
  http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html#dev

Use one of these commands to clone the cmake.org/cmake.git repository:

  git clone git://cmake.org/cmake.git CMake

or for http protocol:

  git clone http://cmake.org/cmake.git CMake

If you cannot install a git client, the repository is also served
by cvs pserver:

  cvs -d :pserver:anonym...@cmake.org:/cmake.git co -d CMake master

Please see the above-linked wiki page for full instructions.

-Brad

cvs diff still works here. How long will this still be available (read-only 
I guess) so that I don't loose my local changes before switching everything 
to git on my machine ?

I made one commit in the CVS repository that will not be moved to Git.
It just adds a fatal error message to the top-level CMakeLists.txt file
that links to the new instructions on the download page.

The rest of the tree will stick around for a while.  The last version
that was moved to Git was tagged with CMake-CVS-Final in CVS.

Currently this is undetermined.  We wanted to get the conversion done
with minimal change in workflow for now.  Once we've settled in to
using pure Git we can consider more advanced usage.

Not associated with the author but I did find the following book/site  
very useful when I switched to Git.


http://progit.org/book/

The book is open source, Ie, you can download a pdf of the book and  
all the sources to the book are up on github.


Hope it helps someone..

That is great news - very pleased to hear the switch has been made! How long 
is the rebase only, linear history policy likely to remain? I think that this 
is a great move, and I look forward to other projects we work on making the 
move too.
