Description Arnaud Fontaine 2010-12-23 02:08:52 UTC

Hello,

I have been working on splitting up xcb-util git repository in several git repositories as discussed months ago on XCB mailing list[0]. I would like to push the git repositories currently available on [1] under xcb-util-split-clean directory.

Could you please create the following git repositories in xcb/:

- util-common-m4
- util-image
- util-keysyms
- util-renderutil
- util-wm
- util-old

Thanks much!

Cheers,
Arnaud Fontaine

Sure, can you please provide a one-line description for each?

Also, should they have the same hook script as libxcb?  (CIA + mail to xcb-commits@)

Hi,

Sure:

- util-common-m4:
  M4 macros useful for XCB util repositories

- util-image:
  Port of Xlib's XImage and XShmImage

- util-keysyms:
  Standard X key constants and conversion to/from keycodes

- util-renderutil:
  Convenience functions for the Render extension

- util-wm:
  Client and window-manager helpers for ICCCM and EWMH

- util-old:
  XCB Utility library repository before being split (Deprecated)

Also, could you please update the description of util repository:

Hello,

Could you please tell me when you will have time to do it (roughly)? Thanks.

Cheers,

Comment 4 Daniel Stone 2011-02-09 07:11:26 UTC

done, sorry for the delay

Comment 5 Arnaud Fontaine 2011-03-06 03:16:36 UTC

Hello,

Thank you very much. I have been very busy and I have just pushed now all my commits to these repositories and noticed that there are mistakes in repositories description:

- xcb/util-renderutil: Should be: Convenience functions for the Render extension
- xcb/util-wm: Should be: Client and window-manager helpers for ICCCM and EWMH
- xcb/util-old: Should be: XCB Utility library repository before being split (Deprecated)

Also, it seems that util-wm was existing previously but has been simply emptied (my mistake for not asking you that, sorry). Many thanks!

Cheers,
Arnaud Fontaine

Comment 6 Daniel Stone 2011-03-14 06:36:00 UTC

i've fixed the descriptions now, but don't have a copy of util-wm around.  please reopen this bug if you need us to dig it up from a backup.  sorry about that.

Comment 7 Daniel Stone 2011-03-14 14:02:37 UTC

(closing, oops)

Comment 8 Arnaud Fontaine 2011-03-23 18:28:17 UTC

Hello,

Thanks for the descriptions. I don't have any copy of util-wm neither, so could you please have a look in the backups (no hurries at all though)? Many thanks.

Cheers,
Arnaud Fontaine

Seems like somebody had a copy of util-wm around, it's at least filled with commits now, so leaving it at that.  Please reopen urgently if the current copy is not correct, and sorry about the mess.
