Therefore I'd like you to expand and/or correct those mini-summaries below. (It would be, I guess, good preparation for GSoC 2008 mid-term evaluations, which according to GSoC 2008 timeline http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_timeline are to take place July 7 -- July 14.) 1. GitTorrent (???) Student: Joshua Roys Mentor: Sam Vilain There was short thread of me asking about project http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/83611 where I got gittorrent mailing list (no activity at least according to list archive http://lists.utsl.gen.nz/pipermail/gittorrent/) and URL for project repo / gitweb... which is currently down, so I cannot check if there is anything here. What is the status of this project, please? http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001134.html ("Don't Got Dark") 2. git-statistics (?) Student: Sverre Rabbelier Mentor: David Symonds There were some posts about how git-statistics can be used: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/81534 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/82027 but it was mainly theoretical thread The git-stats repository at http://repo.or.cz/w/git-stats.git (gitweb) has some commits, but I don't remember any of them on git mailing list. Not ready? 3. Gitweb caching Student: Lea Wiemann Mentor: John 'warthog' Hawley Lea has chosen caching data and memcached as primary caching engine, and is working on object layer on top of Git.pm, namely Git::Repo and friends, which will be used by gitweb. If I understand correctly caching is to be done, or at least helped by this layer. There were added tests for Git.pm (now in git.git I think) and Mechanize test for gitweb (which detected a few errors). Is it correct? 4. Eclipse plugin push support (!) Student: Marek Zawirski Mentor: Shawn O. Pearce I am not following egit/jgit development close enough, but if I remember correctly there is some code which provides very rudimentary support for native generation of simplified packs, and IIRC also for push over some protocols. And there is push support over SFTP and (encrypted) Amazon S3... 5. git-merge builtin (!!!) Student: Miklos Vajna Mentor: Johannes Schindelin Builtin merge, together with preparation patches, is now at n-th iteration, as shown in the "Build in merge" thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/86584 In "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" Junio C Hamano wrote: It already is beginning to become clear what 1.6.0 will look like. [...] * git-merge will be rewritten in C. 6. git-sequencer (!) Student: Stephan Beyer Mentor: Christian Couder, Daniel Barkalow It started with discussion over TODO file format: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/84230 Now there is prototype shell script implementation (which has some limitations because it is prototype) in "git sequencer prototype" http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/86985 Stephan Beyer wrote: I'm using sequencer-based git-am and git-rebase-i and also git-sequencer itself for around 2-3 weeks now. So, for me, it is reality-proven [...] -- Jakub Narebski Poland
