I want to use Github as the primary repo for the Python tools and NOT the current repo at git.spdx.org.
Why? Contributors have been complaining and are not happy with current setup as they should. Today the repo https://github.com/spdx/tools-python/ is a mirror of http://git.spdx.org/?p=spdx-tools-python.git This means that all commit must be done pushed to git.spdx.org and eventually they will be replicated to github. Eventually is a big word. It takes forever (it took about three days on a recent commit) This lack of sync just makes a sane workflow impossible in particular to review pull requests and foster collaboration. Even if the sync was to take less than a minute, this mirroring is just an impediment and inefficient when all the work is taking place on Gihub including issues and PRs. The mirroring (if needed) should be done the other way: http://git.spdx.org should be synced from the github repo for reference. This should be rather simple IMHO: just remove any mirroring hooks or settings from repo @ spdx (and if needed setup a cron job to pull from github instead.) Who can make this happen? Kate? Gary? I would rather have this ASAP. -- Cordially Philippe Ombredanne +1 650 799 0949 | pombreda...@nexb.com DejaCode : What's in your code?! at http://www.dejacode.com nexB Inc. at http://www.nexb.com _______________________________________________ Spdx-tech mailing list Spdx-tech@lists.spdx.org https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-tech
