Will GTfM be moving to Mecurial? #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The CorePlot project has moved to Mercurial.  One downside of this is we can no 
longer (trivially) 
include an external SVN repository.  Will GTfM be moving to Hg anytime soon, so 
we should pursue 
that route?  Or should be researching how to bridge SVN external repositories 
to Mercurial?

There seem to be workarounds for GIT, but I haven't seen anything for Mercurial.

We don't plan on switching.  We'll see what else shows up from the google code 
blog on the subject over time, 
but there are a bunch of other projects we work on that use svn:external to 
pull GTM, so we don't want to break 
that.

If you consider moving to another source code control system I'd vote for git. 
Otherwise svn is fine.

Actually there is a better solution than the git work around for HG.  You can 
use the deps extensions, it works 
for referencing anything not just svn.
