Another JBoss GitHub repository mirror

August 30th, 2008

For those of you playing along at home, I’ve added jboss-deployers to my GitHub mirror set.  Like the others, the ‘vendor’ branch is the one you want.

I’m adding JBoss projects to my mirror set as I trip across the need to browse their source.  If there’s a JBoss project you’d like to see mirrored out of SVN, drop the URL to the trunk of the SVN repository in a comment on this post, and I’ll start slurping it.

    Hi

    Why you need Git mirror instead of svn and how this work is synchronized ? ;> Official server is svn and jboss model is rather centric, most of patches are approved by JBoss employees. It is not like developing Linux Kernel ;>

    @Kamil–

    Git, really, just because I enjoy working with the git toolset now. The mirrors are purely read-only. If I have any modifications, I’ll certainly prepare a patch and get it applied through the committers. It’ll ultimately then percolate up to git again.

    The mirror just makes it easy for me to work on my patches (if any) in a Git workspace, and not have to deal with SVN at all. By doing the SVN mirror on GitHub, others can benefit from it also, if they too prefer to work in Git-managed repositories.

    Git can do bidirectional sync between the mirror and the SVN repository, but I’m not a committer, so that’s not appropriate. (But I am a JBoss employee)

    Sounds good, I’ll get Drools up on the mirror set Real Soon Now.

    Hi Bob,

    If your offer still holds, could you also add JBoss Messaging?

    @Jeff–

    Sure thing, I’ll get JBM wired up later on today. (But I’ll pull from the anonsvn URL…)
