Re: [che-dev] Changing the project metadata folder name to ".che"
Hi Lior,

Well, at some point we would need to do something like that, thanks for your work.

But, I am not sure if we are able to apply those changes shortly. The problem is that we already have a lot of projects with ".codenvy/*"  (on codenvy.com and on-prem accounts) so even if they do not fail with ".che" it does not mean they continue to work correct.
I am not sure but feel that we will also need some migration procedure, more testing on staging etc.

I mean I am basically OK with your proposal but not sure when we can apply it.

Cheers, 


Gennady Azarenkov - CTO @ codenvy.com

Hi,

 

 

When using the Eclipse Che default project manager implementation, the resulting files are saved in a “.codenvy” folder saved in the root of the project. I would like to suggest that this be changed from “.codenvy” to “.che” in order to not tie filenames created without the Codenvy part to Codenvy.

 

I’ve submitted two pull-requests to this effect, one on the che-core repository (https://github.com/codenvy/che-core/pull/89) and the other in the che-plugins repository (https://github.com/codenvy/che-plugins/pull/131 - this pull-request depends on changes made in the che-core repository).

 

The pull-requests also fix usages of the “.codenvy” string literally, instead of using the relevant constant in the projects API, and add some compatibility code so that accessing a project that has a “.codenvy” folder instead of a “.che” folder will not fail.
