[egit-dev] PDE & RelEng stuff in EGit
|
Hi,
There is a request open to add support for Git to PDE build. The wish is
that those extensions find a home within EGit.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=289838
While working on them I noticed some differences to the rest of EGit
plug-ins.
1) The target just a subset of Eclipse committers/projects which is
significant less than the EGit user/contributor community.
2) They usually don't target an older Eclipse version but the current
development version.
Thus, I was wondering if they should be maintained in their own Git
repository. Something like "egit-eclipse-tools". The IPlog tool could
probably also find a home in there.
The benefit I see is that the majority of EGit contributor won't need to
deal with them when contributing to JGit/EGit. The contributor could
would get a special section that is optional. The plug-ins can also have
their own release cycles.
What do you think?
-Gunnar
