GNU Emacs and XEmacs teams are currently using overlays.g.o for their overlays AND upstream development (which is bad, as I was told). Our directory structure looks like this: / -/emacs-overlay (available via layman) -/xemacs-overlay (available via layman) -/emacs-extra (upstream for emacs eselect module, app-(x)emacs/gentoo-syntax and some small tools for Emacs/XEmacs maintainenance in Gentoo). The -extra directory should move to a more suitable repository...including history. Is this possible? We would like to keep using Subversion for it. graaff, ulm: Anymore proposals/hints/suggestions?
svnadmin-dump + svndumpfilter should let this be done, just be painful. I couldn't possibly interest you in making it a Git repository instead? (which would make my life easier)
As discussed on IRC: we would like to migrate "emacs-extra/" except "emacs-extra/eclass/" (since some files were moved between emacs-overlay/eclass/ and emacs-extra/eclass/ which causes trouble with svndumpfilter).
I'd be happy with git, but since I'm not actively participating in that part of the repository my vote probably won't count for much. :-)
ok. should be done. revs 1-1029 were preserved exactly minus any content that was outside the directories of interest. overlay/r1030 is the removal of emacs-extra svn.g.o/r1030:1031 are the preparation of the directories on the new side. # svn co svn+ssh://svn.gentoo.org/var/svnroot/emacs
