enlistments

Hi,
If a project switches its scm, should it delete the previous source code enlistments? Or will this mess up the history of the project?

Specifically I am talking about Wings 3D. We just switched from svn to git, and there is even an enlistment to the cvs tree with which the project started.

I believe the history from the svn was carried over to Git using a conversion tool, but the cvs tree is the only record of the first years of the Wings 3D project.

I just added the new Git repository.

Please advise as to deleting the svn enlistment.

If it is no trouble to leave them all, then that's fine with me too :)

Regards,
Richard

Hi optigon,

The main goal should be to capture all of the commits, to capture them each once.

If the Subversion history was migrated into Git, then I recommend removing the Subversion enlistment. This will avoid double-counting those commits.

If the CVS history is unavailable anywhere else, I would keep the CVS.
