Moving the packages repo and converting to Mercurial
Michael Sperber writes:
OK, I now have the CVS repository massaged to the point where cvs2hg
will accept it. There's a basic decision to be made wrt. the
conversion:
#1 I can convert everything to one big Mercurial repo. (About
230MBytes.)
#2 I can convert every individual package into a Mercurial repo, and
arrange them as subrepositories to an umbrella repo.
If this is basically equivalent to git submodules (which are
implemented as pointers to commits in different repos), I'm all in
favor of it. Note that CVS doesn't have any way of replicating past
revisions tree-wide at all! Unless there's a tree-wide tag, and the
Mercurial semantics should be the same (maybe we need a script).
