Re: [eclipse-pmc] Migrating from CVS to Git

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We currently think there is value keeping
the old repository around in read only form and have an open request for
it:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=348976

If it's ok with you, we'd like revisit
this after Juno when things have settled down. Maybe some of the reasons
for keeping it around will be gone by then and we can just archive it.

The repositories still exist. Are they read-only and targeted
for eventual archival (per standard webmaster practice)?

Thanks,

Wayne

Subject	[eclipse-pmc] Migrating from CVS to Git

Greetings Eclipse PMC.

As you should hopefully already be aware, the Eclipse Foundation has declared
a shutdown date for CVS of December 21/2012.

A couple of Eclipse projects are still using CVS. The list of projects,
generated based on information provided in project metadata via the developer
portal, is available via the project status page.

http://eclipse.org/projects/tools/status.php?top=eclipse&cvs=1

It seems that the top-level project has a single CVS repository indicated
in its metadata, /cvsroot/eclipse/org.eclipse.cvs-feature. Is this repository
still used? It doesn't appear to have had any commits in many months. Can
we just archive this repository and move on?

e4, has a single CVS repository as well, /cvsroot/eclipse/e4. It looks
like maybe some parts of this repository have been migrated to Git, but
not all.

Can you please ensure that these projects have a plan for migration before
the cut off date?

Let me know if I can help.

Wayne
