I've finally been able to convert all extras package modules/branches (from FC3 and up) to git, much in the same layout as dist-hg (each release "branch" being its own standalone repo (complete with inherited history from devel/ branch at split time)) I haven't yet started modifying Makefiles and plague to handle getting a checkout of a package from a tag and building it. That will probably come next week. Some interesting comparisons: Time to convert from CVS to GIT: real 556m51.452s user 32m36.370s sys 68m29.753s Time to convert from CVS to HG: real 155m0.948s user 84m18.080s sys 41m5.246s Size of dist-git (with full repack -a -d): 3.9G /srv/git/extras Size of dist-hg (no extra processing): 1.8G /srv/hg/extras None of the above are really deciding factors in what to use, just some interesting anecdotal observations. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
