Seconded. That also makes cleaning up / moving stuff around much

I brought that up initially, but I wont defend it to death. Both ways
have their advantages and disadvantages. Lets see what the consensus in
the ESC is tommorrow.

Best,

Hope it is not off-topic here as well (if it is, please tell and I'll
just copy it to wiki discussion page)

/* artwok */ is meant to not being merged.

I think this is a bad choice, as you will always need it when
building, and for the same reasons it is discussed not to be worthy to
be merged, I'm all in favor of merging it:

* changes very infrequently (thus no significant increase in history
data, but even if it was: Does it matter whether you pull it into the
one or into the other repository? So I don't understand the only
binaries argument as supporting the idea to keeping it separate)

* (mostly only) designers work on it. They have no use for git, be it
a seperate repository or not. They don't need any history, the cannot
use diffs on binaries anyway. A static tarball containing the content
or just a webpage for browsing the icons is enough and better suited
to satisfy them.

I got slightly different figures for the .git/ of each repository.
Instead of 1666MB total, I got 1350MB.
You may have to run 'git gc' on your repositories.
I got the 1350MB figure by testing with fresh clones.
Tell me if you want me to update the wiki page with these figures.

 This is still a work in progress, and there are small and full scale
 test to be conducted.
 Planning and exact deployment plan are also very much a work in progress.

 Never-the-less the general idea is to try to do this migration sightly
 after 3.4.2, so roughly in the August 2011 time-frame.

Yep, very possible... but these number are mostly to get an idea of
the order of magnitude...

 Tell me if you want me to update the wiki page with these figures.

Sure, no problem.
