[Libreoffice] Single Git repository migration plan

[Sophie Gautier]

Hi all,
[please follow up on projects@ list]

There is an planed effort to reduce and consolidate the number of git 
repositories in use (up to 20 currently) and migrate them using a git 
fetch, however it has some drawbacks with history being unusable.
A clean up will be necessary too (the main one being tab/space 
clean-up). You'll find a C program for that indicated on the wiki page 
bellow.
As a result also, the development pages will need to be updated on the 
wiki, so you'll have to monitor the changes done there.
The script onegit.sh, which is located in contrib/dev-tools, implement 
the steps described above.
The migration is intrusive so please, pay attention to what will be done 
and the schedule (not confirm yet) on this page
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/One_Git_Conversion

Thanks in advance for your help, your feedback and your monitoring on this.
If you have any question, don't hesitate to ask (I am for sure the wrong 
person to answer but I know where the resource is hiding :)

Kind regards
Sophie
