Vote: move to git.
As the discussions seem to end, can i propose a vote?
The question : should we convert the master SVN repository of Apache
OFBIz to a GIT version?
The possible answers are according the apache voting guidelines at:
https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html
*
+1: 'Yes lets do it'
* +0: 'I don't feel strongly about it, but I'm okay with this.'
*
-0.5: 'I don't like this idea, but I can't find any rational
justification for my feelings.'
*
++1: 'Wow! I like this! Let's /do/ it!'
*
-0.9: 'I /really/ don't like this, but I'm not going to stand in the
way if everyone else wants to go ahead with it.'
*
+0.9: 'This is a cool idea and i like it, but I don't have time/the
skills necessary to help out.'
* -1 'I do not want this.'
Votes will be possible for one week from today.
Regards,
Hans

-0 (maybe it's the same that +0 ;) ), I vote +0 when I will use git,
but currently the fthe fear of change :).

+0
I personally prefer git anytime over svn, but it seems a few people are
not comfortable with git (yet). I'm using it already with ofbiz locally
(no commit via git yet but will try it soon)

Full ack for Adams remarks.
There should be a +0.5 like „I like this idea, but the realization has to be well planned for a point in the future where the all over organization fits the needs for a different contribution process" ;-)
So, +0.5 from me.

This may be the nail in the coffin, at least for now, but +0, needs more
discussion/planning. I've been using git-svn for longer than most with
ofbiz, and would really love it if we were already using git, but it's
just too soon.
Just because git is decentralized, doesn't mean that there is no longer
a center. *Someone* has to be pulling/merging all the branches, and who
would step up to that plate? Who would want to take on the mantel? I
don't think we as a community are ready to require that of someone.
Of course, we need to start planning for this eventuality, imho, but we
are still a long ways off.
ps: I, and others, will continue to use git in our upstream svn
interactions, as that seems to work well enough
pps: as per Adrian's vote call, there is nothing actionable here.

Thanks Hans for taking the effort, but...
- I see a Nicolas 3 times? I know of Julien Nicolas and Nicolas Mailin...
- Martin Becker's vote is missing (ok, he introduced a new value, maybe
it does not count)
The last votes were a little bit confusing and are at least hard to
follow. Maybe we should change the process a little bit, e.g.
- only give a vote as direct answer to the vote call, in the first line
of the answer
- open a corresponding vote discussion thread where all the explanations
and discussions take place

Are git patches acceptable or should they be provided as svn instead?
Command line supports git to svn formatting but I haven't found a way to
do so in eclipse yet. If git isn't an acceptable format I'll make an
effort to convert all the patches I've provided for the past couple of
weeks.

Re: Vote: move to git.

That's my point as well. These most recent votes have not had concrete
actions attached to them. Without a concrete plan, any kind of +# vote
is not definitive; a +1 could mean anything in these cases.
I chose +0 instead of -0 or -1, as I do believe git is the right
approach, but we need more time to figure out what will change.
* How does the submit-as-patch workflow change with Jira(still allow for
patch, but also allow for fork(clone)/push/merge-request)?
* How to deal with empty directories(svn allows them, git does not)?
* Do we try to support signed commits?
* Should Acked-By, Signed-off-By, etc be adopted as pseudo tags(see the
linux-kernel's use of git)?
* Use pseudo tags for Jira issues?
* What about CLA for all those fork/clone above?
* Who are the Lieutenants, and who is the Dictator(the linux kernel way,
not a suggestion for us)?
* What about line-ending changes? Git has a feature(.gitattributes,
.git/info/attributes) that allow for many different flags to be set;
what would those values be?
These are just off the top of my head.

The veto is only on commit changes, this vote is not for a commit change so my -1 doesn't count as a veto.

C'mon Hans
The vote was about "should we convert the master SVN repository of
Apache OFBIz to a GIT version?"
Nobody stops you from creating a proper plan.

Ok let first wait for the vote result seeing your comment at the -1 .
However then still we need a vote again after the proposal... if you
make it a -0.9 then when the proposal is agreed, no need for a vote.
for people who would like to help, there are plenty of GIT workflow
proposals in other Apache projects.

Did you read the document that you are asking us to refer to as your proposal for the firs Git MVP? The document describes a different workflow because it uses a read only Git repo: no merging on master branch will be possible.

Hans,
I think you didn't spend enough time studying this material.
The document you are referencing is what we already have: the workflow and infrastructure described are already in place:
1) a writable svn repo
2) a read only mirror in git: git://git.apache.org/ofbiz.git
3) Jira to submit patches

the workflow can be simple as is described in:

we could use this as the MVP (minimum viable product) so mimic basically
how people use SVN and then slowly take advantage of the possibilities
of GIT.

Hi Taher,
please read my previous messages on this subject because they contain some of the information you are looking for.
A good document to start with could be this:
http://www.apache.org/dev/writable-git
and also the documents referred to it.
Then also a review of the workflow adopted by other ASF project that switched to git may help to get some good ideas for OFBiz; the projects are the following:
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf
By visiting their websites/wikis/mail archives we could gather useful information about their experience and lessons learned; what the ASF allows and what not.

I wouldn't use the term "implementation plan" that was introduced by Hans: what I am asking for is essentially a description of the commit workflow proposed for OFBiz. Then we could compare it to what we have now and discuss its pros and cons.

Hi Jacopo,
I am a bit of a noob on ASF policies. Is it possible to guide us on
resources to read to be able to draft any kind of proposal? Can you also
define what is an implementation plan? Is it like a document, a migration
process, a commit workflow, infrastructure or what exactly?

Jacopo,
This vote was about IF we choose to go to Git, if the answer is yes,
sure then we need an implementation plan.
It is no use, setting up an implementation plan when there is still a
possibility people will reject it.
Regards,
Hans
PS. We really have to change the way we work here, I admire Adam,
spending so much time on maven when people can still reject it.

-1
not because I don't like Git or because I don't think it wouldn't be a good fit for OFBiz; the reason for my negative vote is that in the vote there is no mention to the workflow the project will adopt; at the ASF there are some limitations due to Infrastructure and/or license/legal reasons and not all the way Git could be used are allowed (for example I don't think we will be allowed to accept Pull Requests from GitHub).
There are several ASF projects that have switched to Git (https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf ) but the workflows they have adopted are different from the ones implied by some of the comments in this mailing list; see for example:
http://karaf.apache.org/index/community/contributing.html (this is very similar to our current svn-based workflow)
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/GitAndHadoop (patch based contributions)
I have mentioned a few times that until someone will take time to review what others do and what can be done @ASF with Git and come up with a proposal for OFBiz, my vote will be negative because it doesn't make any sense to vote for a tool or the other.

Git is a great tool once you understand the mechanisms and get used to it.
But I also think that it might be too early to make it the main source
control for the project. It takes extra effort for some and the
committers have to handle pull requests and such.
With the other bigger sub projects in mind (Maven, Moqui etc.) I think
we should not force it right now. The benefits are not that strong.

I like git and use it primarily but I'm not sure that adoption of git at

unwilling.
