Re: [henshin-dev] Migrating to git
|
Hi Christian,
Quoting Christian Krause <henshin.ck@xxxxxxxxx>:
one month ago I wrote an e-mail with the subject "Release planned
for beginning of November". I don't see how anyone could miss that.
A week ago, you talked about needing roughly two weeks. I think it's
great to release now, I was just proposing to do some maintenance
tasks now, as the release seems to have been possible earlier than
anticipated.
Regarding Git: I do not really have the time to learn Git, to
migrate our repository, and to adapt our build scripts to Git.
Besides, I don't see why we would need Git.
There are several reasons for migrating to git, amongst them some
rather good ones. Eclipse is migrating to git at large, so it's
sensible to also migrate (we will have to migrate eventually, so we
could as well do it now). However, this is very much a non-argument;
oen of the real advantages of git is the extremely good branching and
merging mechanism. Git makes branches, merging and reintegrating
extremely easy, so I see advantages in migrating to git if we should
be planning to do lots of branches and integrate them into the trunk.
I think our overall development process can benefit from a a version
control system that focuses heavily on creating, synchronizing and
merging branches, such as git.
