[gst-devel] Core/Base/Bad/Python released. Next step - moving to GIT.

[Jan Schmidt]

Now that the set of Core/Base/Python/Bad release are out of the way, the
plan is to move to GIT over the next week.

Edward will be managing the timing and activity of the actual migration
to fit in with his week at LCA, but the general plan is:

* Core/Base/Bad/Python stay frozen until further notice
* Edward decides when he wants to cue up the migration and lets us know
* At a designated time *all other* modules will freeze in CVS and CVS
will be marked Read-only, so that there can be no commits while the
migration takes place.
* Everything moves to git in the standard locations on the
freedesktop.org servers (which should be something like
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer,
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base etc)
* Everyone can start using git, and CVS is only useful as a read-only
history.

In case of unexpected disaster:
All repositories are tagged with GIT_MIGRATION for the commit at which
the conversions were done. If the worst comes to worst, we can then
easily get all commits since that conversion as a series of unified-diff
patches, make cvs read-write again, and commit them.

Edward - over to you!

Cheers,
Jan.
