Fwd: Google Code shutting down

[David Pineau]

Hey Guys !

Here is a forwarded mail about Google Code going down slowly until next year.

Since we're kind-of (I guess at least for a part of us) Mercurial Lovers, I'd propose going over to bitbucket, although the github choice might seem more relevant in terms of platform popularity.

Of course, we're soon going to rewrite the whole thing and might as well start from scratch, but I think that we should keep the history anyways.

What do you think about it ? Should we go over to github ? Bitbucket ? Self-Hosted ?

Cheers !

Hello,

Earlier today, Google announced we will be turning down Google Code Project Hosting. The service started in 2006 with the goal of providing a scalable and reliable way of hosting open source projects. Since that time, millions of people have contributed to open source projects hosted on the site.

But a lot has changed since 2006. In the past nine years, many other options for hosting open source projects have popped up, along with vibrant communities of developers. It’s time to recognize that Google Code’s mission to provide open source projects a home has been accomplished by others, such as GitHub and Bitbucket.

We will be shutting down Google Code over the coming months. Starting today, the site will no longer accept new projects, but will remain functionally unchanged until August 2015. After that, project data will be read-only. Early next year, the site will shut down, but project data will be available for download in an archive format.

As the owner of the following projects, you have several options for migrating your data.

• rathaxes

The simplest option would be to use the Google Code Exporter, a new tool that will allow you to export your projects directly to GitHub. Alternatively, we have documentation on how to migrate to other services — GitHub, Bitbucket, and SourceForge — manually.

For more information, please see the Google Open Source blog or contact google-cod...@google.com.

Well, I'm waiting for a few more answers to actually do the migration, but I created the "Team" for Rathaxes in bitbucket just in case we actually need it.

[David Amsallem]

I would recommand GitHub or BitBucket.

Both are very good, GitHub is far more popular but hey, if no shiny project goes to bitbucket, they will never get over GitHub ;).

Advantage ofGitHub is for real company where they can pretty much self host the enterprise version of GitHub synchronizing with their ldap and such.

Enjoy using BitBucket, it's pretty cool !

I send an email before reading this...

If bitbucket it's mercurial friendly, in pretty ok for bitbucket...

[Thomas Sanchez]

Github has one advantages: google is proposing a tool to automate the migration.

I'll be happy with anything anyway :)

[David Pineau]

It seems like there is a procedure for migrating to bitbucket also, but as it is not as "mainstream" as github, it's a separate tool, as far as I understood.

[Lionel Auroux]

Ok for bitbucket for rathaxes... I will try github for pyrser and all my old stuff in google.code. I could also create a link between bitbucket and github... I will try...

[David Pineau]

Imho, we could have a mirror on github for rathaxes-related stuff, that would be a good visibility, but we shoul try to avoid any active-active kind of bitbucket/github repository.

ie: Pushes should be made to bitbucket, never to github, Github should be a Read-only repository from our point of view.

[Thomas Sanchez]

Given the project status, isn't it overkill ?

I mean having 2 repositories to maintain and synchronize is (IMO) an useless (error-prone) burden ATM.

We should use one of them. Especially if we decide to go for Hg on Bitbucket and git on github...

[David Pineau]

Obviously. This was meant as a "later" thing (Though we might want to create the github organization/repo in order to avoid it being somehow stolen)

[Lionel Auroux]

I have migrate all my stuff on bitbucket without pb.

I have done the same thing with github, but I can't import pyrser... I have an error without meaningfull message from githubimporter ...

I have some stuff to commit on pyrser ( Tree Automata :P ).

I will do it on bitbucket and see later how to synchronize the bitbucket and github later...

[Louis Opter]

bitbucket is fine, we'll have to mirror to github anyway, but that's
fine, it's not hard nor urgent to do.

Given the number of commits we do, we can just push to bitbucket and
github via hg-git manually every time.

Pyrser refuse to be imported on github from bitbucket also... I will try to manually mirror it in the day...

For infos:

I will make updates documentations and tutorials of pyrser soon about tree automata and AST rewriting, but I could say already that's a powerful evolution for the futur rathaxes.
I must finish it and use it for pyrser/cython bootstrapping for acknowledge it as usable, but if you want, we could talk about it on the pyrser-devel list.

Hi, it's a long time...

Just to say that you could see the presentation about PSL here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ys8eeASeeIY ...

As previously say, it's a powerful evolution for the futur rathaxes but is not totally the subject of this post...

EPITECH students are working on my project KOOC (https://lse.epita.fr/teaching/courses.html) using pyrser and cnorm.

This year we have moved from googlecode to bitbucket but few student have already send me issues on github for pyrser (I have finally found the error on the importer and put this on github).

So as the only current developer on pyrser, I will continue to focus on github for this tool and rename my bitbucket stuff as mirror... It's a really PITA to maintain 2 repo.

I will try to gain visibility on github for this project...we will see for rathaxes later

[David Pineau]

I think we all agree about maintaining multiple repos being a PITA, whatever the model.

I have been using hg-git with github this year. It doesn't work with
Mercurial 3.5 but eh, still does the job.

I have been using git at work, so I kinda manage both now.
