Switching Moodle main code repository to Git

Necessary changes on moodle.org servers

Reconfigure CVS server

  1. stop automatic weekly tagging and daily version commits in CVS
  2. stop automatic cvs.moodle.org --> git.moodle.org export
  3. take away all CVS write access from main CVS moodle module at cvs.moodle.org (keep all contrib and lang modules unchanged) - only moodlerobot and CVS admin will have write access

Sync CVS with Git

  1. make binary snapshot from git cvshead to CVS HEAD - override CVS checkout with files from current cvshead Git branch

Tweak git://git.moodle.org/moodle.git

  1. give write access to Sam, Petr, Eloy and Martin
  2. set up git commit hooks that push mirrors to Github and Gitorious from git.moodle.org (all 4 branches, we need to set up keys for the moodlerobot)
  3. set up git commit hook that triggers export to CVS commit mirror (all 4 branches, we need to tweak the PHP script and keys for CVS commit access)
  4. create new master branch from cvshead in git.moodle.org
  5. delete old cvshead branch in Git (the master is the correct name now)

Set up git://git.moodle.org/integration.git

  1. give write access to Sam, Petr, Eloy and Martin
  2. configure Pull project to track this repo

Next steps

  • branch MOODLE_20_STABLE from HEAD in CVS
  • create new MOODLE_20_STABLE branch form master in git.moodle.org
  • set up 3 QA moodle sites on top of the integration git repo

Already done

  • create PULL project for requests

Other

  • create a separate repository or branches for the amos bot commits in /install/xx/
