Hi,
Following my post entitled "[Proposal] Plugins and xwiki distributions" I'd
like to propose that we reorganize our SVN. Here's what I propose:
xwiki/
|_ xwiki/
|_ trunks/
|_ branches/
|_ tags/
|_ xwiki-plugins/
|_ trunks/
|_ emailnotification/
|_ lucene/
|_ ...
|_ branches/
|_ tags/
|_ xwiki-apps/
|_ trunks/
|_ branches/
|_ tags/
|_ xwiki-clients/
|_ trunks/
|_ branches/
|_ tags/
|_ xwiki-sandbox/
|_ trunks/
|_ branches/
|_ tags/
|_ xwiki-tools/
|_ trunks/
|_ branches/
|_ tags/
The rationale:
* It's really cumbersome to have trunks/, tags/ and branches/ for each
single module. It's easier and better to have only one per category (xwiki,
xwiki-apps, xwiki-clients, etc). Of course each project inside these can
still release in its own lifecycle and tag independently. For example check
the plugins/tags/ dir for Maven
(
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/plugins/tags/) and you'll see that
each plugin is released separately.
* Having trunks/ at different levels doesn't sound like a good idea.
Actually I discovered this when trying to create svn:externals for all
trunks. The same would happen if you tried to check out all the trunks
manually. You would currently get some directories that are not under
version control (xwiki-plugins/, xwiki-clients/, etc). The reason is that
there's no way to check the contents of these directories by taking only the
trunks and still having them under svn control.
Thus my belief is that trunks/ dir at different directory levels in a SVN
directory is not a good idea if everything is in the same project.
Again a good structure is shown by Maven:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/ (all the trunks/ are at the same
level)
* Last, we have a gelc/gelcv1 dir. I don't think we should put version in
the directory structure but rather use trunks and branches for this. I think
it'd be better to use the trunk for v1 and when a v2 comes out, move the v1
to a branch and the v2 to the trunk.
I'd like to reorganize the svn tree to follow what I've defined above. Let
me know if you're ok for me to do it. As some of you might have some
uncommitted changes in your local repo let me know if I can do it. I'd like
to start with the xwiki-plugins/ tree.
Thanks
-Vincent
