Start a vote
To migrate a component to git, start a VOTE by LAZY CONSENSUS on the dev ML. If the vote passes, proceed with the following steps.
Request a new Git repository
Requesting git repositories is managed by an Infra self-service which is located at http://reporeq.apache.org. Go to that website an request the new git repository. Note, that the repository name has to be the component name. So for example for Commons CLI, the repository name had to be "cli". This generated "commons-cli" as generated name.
Migrate code to new repository
- Clone the new Git repository: git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-foo.git 2. Add the already existing GitHub mirror as new remote: git remote add GitHub git@github.com:apache/commons-foo.git 3. Create the master branch: git checkout -b master 4. Add all commits from the mirrored trunk branch from the GitHub mirror to the master branch: git fetch github trunk && git merge github/trunk 5. Add all other branches and tags to your local repository 6. push everything to the new repository
Update pom and website
Ensure that the SCM references in the POM and on the website are updated as soon as possible after the Git repo goes live.

Once the Git repo is up and running:
1) Edit the projects data file (as below) and replace the location reference if necessary:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site-tools/trunk/projects/files.xml
2) Remove the project from the svn:externals property of the trunks-proper directory:
No Format |
---|
svn pe svn:externals https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/trunks-proper
|
3) Add a README file to the top level of the SVN tree for the component, e.g. math
For example: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/math/MathNowUsesGit.txt
24) Move the rest of the contents (branches,tags,trunk, etc) to
