Hi there,
Ok, now here the official mail that shall shortly propose an improved
Git project tree for X2go upstream.
At http://git.x2go.org you will currently find some X2go project that
start with _old_.... and some starting with _new_....
As already mentioned in a former reply to Morty's question about a
change going on in X2go upstream Git, here again the ideas behind that
changes going on. Please compare the _old_.x2gosomething.git with the
_new_.x2gosomething.git repositories:
o pristine-tar branch provides tarballs directly from git (i.e. with correct
time stamps on the files in the tarball)
o /debian folders have been removed
o as many of history releases as possible have been imported and tagged and
made available in pristine-tar branch
o old release versions have not changed, but each X2go project has a
,,first''
Git-based release with a quadruple version number, there will be no ,,-''
in future upstream releases of X2go any more as they
pseudo-conflict with package revisions in diverse distributions
I am aware of the change in md5sums that will smash Git hashes
completely, but as we have not yet announced the X2go Git officially,
I personally do not see this as critical, especially when considering
the gain of getting as much history into X2go Git as is currently
available to me.
Best, Mike
