Switching from SVN to Git
Seems some other projects at the ASF have been switching from SVN to
Git. How you guys feel about making the switch too? I know
personally I much prefer using Git to SVN and my main development
model has been using SVN via Git. Just want to take a poll to see if
any of the ActiveMQ developers would have strong objections to moving
to Git.

Cool could you switch your vote officially to +1 so we can close this
thread out?

Hi Hiram,
If that's possible, that would be great until I can confirm a final
solution. I'm sure there is one, and I'd hate to hold up a migration that
pretty much everyone else is in favor of.
Best,
Jim

Hi Jim,
If your still feeling hesitant, how about we exclude the NMS bits from
migrating to Git for now? Would that work for you?

Of particular importance to how we do things, I found the following Q&A
extremely helpful. In particular, this answer (
http://stackoverflow.com/a/4120179/444653) to the following question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4120001/what-is-the-git-equivalent-for-revision-number
Our build process automatically generates build numbers by extracting
revision numbers. This would be an important feature in order to
potentially use git directly.

Hi Hiram,
While that particular tool wouldn't quite work for us, I did a little more
digging, and came across SubGit (http://subgit.com/). This tool looks like
it potentially fill the gap seamlessly. I'll have to look further into it,
but it does seem promising.
I'll look into it, and revise my vote.
Thanks,
Jim

Re: Switching from SVN to Git
Posted by Hiram Chirino <hi...@hiramchirino.com>.
Hi Jim,
Git has a similar feature called submodules. See:
http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Submodules
But honestly it should not be to much trouble to just script a few git
checkouts in your build process would it?
I find SVN to be too slow for everyday use. Being able to be able to
fully use all the SCM features even when offline is also a very bonus.

If you internet connection is not good, merging the patch between the branch by using SVN could take more than 10 minutes.
I really hate that, even with help of git-svn, I can do some work off line , but it is still pain in ass to merge the patch for trunk to other branches and committed them into svn repository.

We integrate the ActiveMQ NMS build tree into our build process using
external references. Switching to Git will most likely make this
impossible. If there is a solution that can continue to make this seamless
for us, then I could consider changing my vote.
I would also ask what are the advantages? I see this as something that
isn't broken and doesn't need fixing. Merging between branches with SVN is
extremely easy, and I do it all the time. I don't understand why others
complain about it. The speed for checkouts, updates and commits is
excellent.

+1 and it saves you lots of time if you need to merge between the branches.
