At least for Okteta I would like to have a move from svn to git as soon as possible. While there have been two threads about this on this list, "migration of kdesdk to git - status?" from 18.12.2010 and "Idea: Converting KDESDK incrementally" from 28.03.2011, so far nothing has happened, besides Kate and kdesrc-build having moved out of KDESDK to other modules. I would like to change that and have something happening :) The gist from the threads is that * the KDESDK module should be split into separate repos, as the single submodules do not have anything in common, like libs or stuff * the whole of KDESDK should be moved to git in one step, to reduce the mess for release managers, packagers and friends Anyone disagrees? Some brave people seem to have prepared set of rules for all the components of the KDESDK module (thanks to them), see https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/sdk/kde- ruleset/repository/revisions/master/show/kdesdk What is the state of these rules? Can the result be checked somewhere? Niko Sams, in the thread "migration of kdesdk to git - status?" as referenced above you also talked about having prepared rules, are they in some way integrated in what is in the repo linked above? Who are the current maintainers of all the submodules in KDESDK? I tried to put all in cc: which looked like the one, see also below who I listed for each submodule. Looking through KDESDK I wonder what should end up in a separate git repo and what not. Standalone programs: * cervisia - Christian Loose * kcachegrind - Josef Weidendorfer * kompare - Kevin Kofler * lokalize - Nick Shaforostoff * okteta - myself :) * umbrello - umbrello devs Surely one repo per program, right? Plugins, grouped by type: * dolphin-plugins svn -Peter Penz hg - Vishesh Yadav git - Sebastian Doerner bazaar - Jonathan Riddell * kioslave perldoc - Michael Pyne? svn - Mickael Marchand? * strigi-analyzer diff - Laurent Montel/Jakub Stachowski po - Montel Laurent/Nick Shaforostoff/Jos van den Oever ts - Montel Laurent/Jakub Stachowski xlf - Albert Astals Cid One repo per plugin? One repo per type? Development utils for KDE developers: * kapptemplate - Anne-Marie Mahfouf * kdeaccounts-plugin - Carsten Pfeiffer? * kdepalettes - ? (and still useful? nothing build/installed here) * kmtrace - seems unmaintained * kpartloader - David Faure * kprofilemethod - David Faure * kstartperf - Geert Jansen * kuiviewer - Benjamin C. Meyer * poxml - uh, no license headers! (Albert Astals Cid) * scripts - lots of kde devs Lots of small tools/helpers, basically not useful for anyone outside KDE development. Dump in one repo? I also wonder if these utilities here should not be split out into a separate module, or the other way round, if all the "real" programs and plugins should not make up a new module called "devtools"/"kdedev" or whatever, so the module with the "real" products can be better promoted to users outside of the group of KDE developers. And kapptemplate could also move to the module kdeexamples perhaps, as kind of code-to-copy/start-from? Completely excluded from build are: * kspy - Richard Moore * kunittest - Jeroen Wijnhout * scheck - Maksim Orlovich/Ryan Cumming These should be moved to tags/unmaintained in svn in any case? And while I have the attention of lots of KDESDK developers, would you mind if I take over the role as coordinator of KDESDK from Matt (in case his offer is still up) and mess^Wtry to clean-up the module a little?
