I am opening this bugreport to track the status of the migration to Git. I was said by Fabo that the migration was planned after the 1.0.3 release but I think we could do it sooner. The thing is that for me is very uncomfortable looking into the commits with CVS and so, I have migrated the repository to Git for my own use but you can find it and see it here: http://github.com/PabloCastellano/portland For the moment I will try to keep it merged with the CVS and so, people can fork it and work with Git.
For the migration, the name and email of the committers/authors of patches could be rewritten to look prettier. Should we contact all of them to ask how they want their name/email address? This is the list: $ git log|grep Author|sort |uniq -c 232 Author: bastian <bastian> 7 Author: bryce <bryce> 57 Author: fabo <fabo> 1 Author: jwhite <jwhite> 26 Author: krake <krake> 30 Author: llunak <llunak> 3 Author: micke <micke> 3 Author: mr <mr> 9 Author: norbertf <norbertf> 24 Author: rdieter <rdieter> 85 Author: whipple <whipple>
Forgot to say, if you want to import by yourself the CVS as Git, just run: git cvsimport -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/portland -k -v -C portland.git portland It took to me ~48 minutes.
