Problem is, I didn't see a clear and hassle-free path to do cross-project
merging in the long term (I didn't ask the GNUS people about their strategy).
Right now I don't have much time to start playing with different VCS and
cross-merging strategies (I'm only proficient with subversion), but if any of
you come up with something that that would work with minimal user intervention
I'd be glad to start a new CEDET branch in such a scenario.
The first step I could do is renaming files, which is the major showstopper
right now. Then the real cross-merging could start, which I don't know if I
would have time to do.
As I understood it, the most viable cross-merging strategy would be:
emacs cedet
|- trunk |- trunk
\- <branchN> \- branch-emacs-<branchN>
Valid merging flows:
cedet::* <-> cedet::*
emacs::* <-> emacs::*
emacs::trunk/lisp/cedet <- cedet::emacs-trunk
emacs::<branchN>/lisp/cedet <- cedet::emacs-<branchN>
My concern with such a scheme is how (*) to transplant changes from cedet into
an emacs subdirectory, such that all cedet commit logs and dates are maintained.
(*) which VCS can be used and which restrictions might this impose on the
development workflow
Thanks,
Lluis
