git cleanup

[ataylor]

I am doing a communiy release this week which will require a tag, before that i thought i would do some cleaning on the hornet tags and branches. After that we can all refork and have a much tidier repos.

so to start with i will delete all the pending tags, i,e, HornetQ_2_2_5_FINAL_PENDING.

can you list here what you think we can delete please?

also quick question, when creating a tag, im assuming we have to do this on a clone of hornetq itself, or can we push them from our own clone? also do we want light weight or annotated tags, i think the l;atter?

[clebert.suconic]

yes, we need to remove the _PENDING tags

The only branches that should exist on the main repository are these:

- Branch_2_2_EAP

- Branch_2_2_AS7

- one-offs (*)

* for the one-offs, we should recreate them properly...

And maybe.. the one-off don't even need to be on the main repo.. maybe we could have a separate project for one-offs.

Any other working branch should be on our clones (like your i18n_logging)

Do you think you could do this cleanup?

[clebert.suconic]

All these branches are garbage anyway.. the only working branch that should be preserved now is your i18n and that could be in your clone only (no need to be on the main repo)

ok, take a look at mt repo https://github.com/andytaylor/hornetq/branches, apart from the i18n_logging branch this is what we will have. The one offs I will deal with separately. If ok i will make these changes upstream, shout now if i have deleted any branches you need

[ataylor]

also is everyone ok with me deleting the pending tags?

[gaohoward]

I'm fine with it.

[ataylor]

fyi i have just cloned my repo again with the branches and pending tags deleted and it took less than 3 mins

That's great!

Can you make these changes upstream as well?

[ataylor]

done.

All we need to do now is sort the one offs, tbh i am not really sure what these are?

If anyone wants a script to clean up their own repo, catch me offline

[clebert.suconic]

STOMP_11 also needs to go

[ataylor]

weird that doesnt appear on https://github.com/hornetq/hornetq/branches

[ataylor]

regarding the one offs, its done something weird by creating directories instead of actual branches, im trying to find the parent commit so i can replay them nd create new branches, anyone got any ideas?

[clebert.suconic]

Just to complete the thread those are going to live on SVN (unless we need to maintain them.. which I don't think that will be the case.. new one-offs can be created)..

This is just as we talked on IRC.. wanted to record that here on the forum for future reference.
