New instruction for Git repository published, what to do with old SVN branches?

Hello all

The page telling how to get the code from the repository and which
branch to use has been updated:

    http://sis.apache.org/source.html (you may need to click "refresh"
    on the browser)

What should we do with old SVN branches and trunk? My proposal is:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sis/tags/

  * Rename "0.2-incubating-rc4" as "0.2-incubating".
  * Delete the other "0.2-incubation-foo" tags.

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sis/branches/

  * Delete branches 0.1 to 0.8 (development should use the tags if needed).
  * Delete JDK9 (work on this branch never really started).
  * Delete the content of JDK8 directory. Replace by a single README
    file giving the last revision number (so people can easily browse in
    the history) and a note saying that development moved to the
    "geoapi-4.0" branch on Git.

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sis/trunk/

  * Delete the content of trunk directory. Replace by a single README
    file giving the last revision number (so people can easily browse in
    the history) and a note saying that development moved to the
    "master" branch on Git.

Is it a reasonable plan? The intent is to avoid that people find a class
on SVN (for example by a search on Google) and think that it is the most
up-to-date version of that file.

Yep may even want to put that on the wiki too…

 

We have a page on Tika and Nutch for migrating:

Cheers,
