I think sympy-oldcore should be left inplace, read below. > and creating for example a new sympy-oldcore repository at > http://hg.sympy.org/sympy-oldcore ? > Or maybe we don't even have to create the repository, because all the > history is archived in the svn at google code anyway. Also the history Practice shows that noone will ever go back to the old svn repository after some time.

Maybe, I don't have enough experience to say, but one thing I can say is that we'll probably want to use some named branches anyway in the future. If yes, this argument goes away. But again -- not 100% sure. > What do you think about it? I think we should leave it. The project was stressed when we switched to the 'new' (now old) core. The switch was done simply copying files, and all the history is on the oldcore branch. Besides not all files were probably copied -- I remember myself restoring pauli algebra several months after the switch. Resume: I suggest we leave oldcore inplace and try to fix 'hg view' -- Всего хорошего, Кирилл. http://landau.phys.spbu.ru/~kirr/aiv/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
