Revive project and point MELPA at new upstream #37

Closed mavit closed 2 months ago

mavit commented 2 months ago

There have been a few fairly straightforward pull requests backing up for several years now. Sadly, I notice that @jhgorrell has no public activity on GitHub since 2021, and his website is down. Perhaps we need someone to fork this project, if it is to continue development.

mavit commented 2 months ago

@peterhoeg: I see you have an up-to-date fork. Should we contact MELPA, asking them to point at that?

jhgorrell commented 2 months ago

Been busy with $DAYJOB -- Would be happy to xfer the repo or assist with a MELPA update.

peterhoeg commented 2 months ago

I've been using my own fork for a while to scratch a few itches - I don't foresee a lot of changes, but there is definitely a few things we can do, and I'm happy to take over.

I'm not sure how to transfer a repo when a fork already exists. I can of course just delete it before @jhgorrell transfers it, but does anyone know a better way? Can a fork be marked as the new upstream?

I suggest we do the MELPA bit afterwards.

jhgorrell commented 2 months ago

My preference would be to:

This would have the benefit that Github would have a "this repo has moved" link. Otherwise future users would see mine, and then have to click through to yours.

peterhoeg commented 2 months ago

Sure, I have renamed it.

jhgorrell commented 2 months ago

Ugh -- looks like you cant have the same name or a clone. I got the error: peterhoeg already has a repository in the jhgorrell/ssh-config-mode-el network

(see a related xfer: https://github.com/VeliovGroup/jazeee-meteor-spiderable/issues/45)

For now I added you as a collaborator while we figure this out.

peterhoeg commented 2 months ago

I've just blown mine away so a transfer should work now.

jhgorrell commented 2 months ago

The transfer is pending. 👍

peterhoeg commented 2 months ago

Transfer is complete, thanks for everything @jhgorrell.

@mavit, do you feel like doing a PR dance to get it changed at melpa?

jhgorrell commented 2 months ago

Most welcome! Glad the mode will get some updates.

mavit commented 2 months ago

Will do! Thanks, both.

peterhoeg commented 2 months ago

Thanks @mavit, melpa is now updated.
