Re: Red5 on GitHub

I want to avoid submodules in git; their use is error prone and someone will make a mistake. As for submodules in red5, there is certainly a need for separation as we wouldn't always need to roll out the rtsp plugin with red5-core; at least until html5 takes over.

Is there a reason you want them all in the same repository? 

I've never actually had a use case for having multiple projects in a Git repository. I know that in Linux, the compat-wireless project (drivers, etc.) has multiple different make projects, libraries, drivers, and firmware in one repository, though I'm not sure if they're using submodules.

There seems to be a good guide on it here: http://book.git-scm.com/5_submodules.html

Since the goal would be to have everything in Red5 building in Maven, would there even be a use-case for having submodules? Each project would be able to get its dependencies through Maven, and there wouldn't be too much external project stuff to pull in.

submodules in git.

Here are my GIT modules (all involving Java, C++, C and assembly code) with nesting showing (actually only 6 sub-modules, but some that nest):

xuggle (currently svn)

-> xuggle-build (currently svn)

-> xuggle-ffmpeg (currently svn)

  -> librtmp (already git)

  -> libx264 (already git)

  -> ffmpeg (algready git)

Any good answers or tricks to the submodule problem?  I have a project with 8 sub-modules (y'all know what it is) and will be officially converting it to GIT because my sub-modules have switched.  I still haven't found a way that I like yet.

I'm the opposite, I despise git at-the-moment; but that may be because I started working with it in a repo that had submodules. What a nightmare.

Not in a big hurry to move off of google though ;)

I figured you might say something like that ;) Well, looks like I have my task cut out for me. I can't stand using SVN ever since I learned Git, so at the very least, this will encourage me to work on Red5.

Jon,

No, sorry, this isn't official. I love Git and would like to see Red5 migrate to Git at some point, so I did it myself. Maybe the team will ultimately want to get over to Git and GitHub. In any case, I've done the legwork. Due to the way I've done things, I can still pull changes from Google Code over SVN into my Git repository to keep this up to data with Google Code. 

Using Git and GitHub makes Red5 even more available to the general public, as being able to fork Red5 is just a button-click away on GitHub. 

Thanks,

Is this a policy change or do you just want to use git instead of svn?

Team,

As a part of my started Maven migration, I've also pulled Red5 into a Git repository (all commits, branches, and tags are intact) and have pushed it to GitHub. I have a few things left to do like fix commit author names and emails, but this is in the near future.

We have a TON of old, stale branches which I'd like to delete, but I'm going to wait until I get some feedback from the team. 

If you'd like to check out my Maven migration, you can see it in the "maven" branch.
