Relocate helper script files to 'contrib/' directory. #24

Closed rye closed 10 years ago

rye commented 10 years ago

Per the comments on d166529be0ecad24f5f85867b687026362f053cf, I've decided to request to move these scripts to a 'contrib/' directory. The only disadvantage that I can see and that applies to people who use these scripts is that they have to use contrib/run and contrib/update instead of just ./run and ./update. However, this is more conventional; these scripts have no connection to FReCon, besides being an amenity for contributors.

I plan to open more pull requests like this regarding changes to these scripts so that I can get feedback before they get merged. I don't want to make working on this project start sucking for people, but at the same time these scripts need to be more dynamic.

I still would rather not have the scripts present at all in frecon. They can go into our implementation without an issue, but it is dumb to have them in our API.

I do agree with your preference. This pull request exists merely to remove them from the root directory.

Sammidysam commented 10 years ago

Then this pull request is fine, but I'd rather go a step further and remove them entirely.

rye commented 10 years ago

I'd like to get feedback from @vmai or @tigerh. If we just want to remove them, then we can. I don't know; this seems like too low of a priority for me to be worrying about.

Sammidysam commented 10 years ago

Mentioning them to get their feedback is all the worrying that is necessary.

I don't mind if you remove it or move it somewhere else.

vmai commented 10 years ago

I don't mind either way. If we do move it though, I'd say move it to the implementation.

Sammidysam commented 10 years ago

So shall we remove them, @krye?

rye commented 10 years ago

Since relocation (the point of this pull request) is okayed, I'll go ahead and merge this pull request. I've started work on the helper-script-files-more-dynamic branch, but I'm okay with killing it off if we're just going to remove the helper script files in the end anyways.

Sammidysam commented 10 years ago

Feel free to kill it off.
