Multimedia/Move to Git

This page describes the move of kdemultimedia from SVN to git.

Work done

Here's a list of important changes in the rules since the “bad” conversion was done.

• Reuse common code that was written for past conversions, fixing several issues.
• Export documentation in version branches.
• Ignore problematic commits such as r409205, which messed up most branches and tags.
• Export kmainwindow-decoupling work branch (rule was already there but incorrect).
• Export phonon-solid-sprint branch in libkcompactdisc.
• Export kfilemetainfo branch in strigi-analyzers.
• Added the old libkcompactdisc history from when it was a part of kscd.

Progress

dragonplayer, strigi-analyzers, ffmpegthumbs, mplayerthumbs are fully done, except for parentmaps, which weren't written for any repo yet.

libkcddb contains documentation taken from a different directory, its history might be incomplete. libkcompactdisc was extracted from the kscd codebase, but we're not currently exporting the history from kscd days. The rest haven't been carefully reviewed yet; in particular juk and kmix may take me a while.

Repository	Status
audiocd-kio
dragonplayer	Only parentmaps missing
ffmpegthumbs	Complete (no parentmaps needed)
juk
kmix
kscd	Apparently complete, only parentmaps missing
libkcddb	Needs review of config docs (not worth getting the old history, r1092954 changed the files too much, git doesn't even recognize it as a copy)
libkcompactdisc	Missing kscd history
mplayerthumbs	Complete (no parentmaps needed)
strigi-analyzers	Only parentmaps missing
