Hi all,
if anyone would like to have a look, I've pushed my current work on
the merged proto repo here:
https://github.com/bartsch/xorg-proto2k/
It's generated as is with:
https://github.com/bartsch/proto2k-generator/
I used git-filter-branch to:
- move files to specific directories and
- prefix commit subjects with the proto name.
Lots of files have been moved to tmp/, which was removed at the end.
See commit "Remove temporary files (tmp/)".
Atm, it just installs:
- headers (+handling Xfuncproto.h and Xpoll.h) and
- pkg-configs for each proto (haven't found any notable diff'erences
to my distro pkg-configs)
Now:
- What should I do with the {AUTHORS,COPYING}.$proto files?
- Should I remove some protos (i.e. trapproto)? The current list is:
https://github.com/bartsch/xorg-proto2k/commit/8b06f11ffff1f99c2f66a9327ef669ee17c530e7
- Anything else I should change?
Next:
- I'm working on generating the specs.
Cheers,
Daniel
PS: Just talked to Peter, he's okay with filter-branch as it gives us
git-log without a struggle and references to other commits can be
looked up in the old repos.
