[ros-dev] Git Migration Newsletter #2

[Colin Finck]

Hi all!

Let me give a short update on the Git Migration:

* The data from the committer table has been converted into an identity
map for the SVN->Git conversion tool:
https://github.com/ColinFinck/reactos-git-conversion-scripts/blob/master/re…
Together with my hacked version of svn-all-fast-export
(https://github.com/ColinFinck/svn2git), this results in a really nice
and clean Git repo :)
Further changes to your names or E-Mail addresses in that committer
table won't be taken into account. Please add your GitHub usernames to
that table though!

* As you can imagine, our tree and tools need several changes to deal
with the change from SVN revision numbers to Git commit hashes.
My first patch for reporting the "Git revision" in our codebase is ready
and open for discussion:
https://github.com/ColinFinck/reactos-git-conversion-scripts/commit/0aaa6ff…
More to follow!


Cheers,

Colin
