Common Structure
We've agreed on a common structure for all our Git repositories:
- bundles/
- all bundle projects
- features/
- feature projects
- releng/
- projects for release engineering
- tests/
- unit test projects
- examples/
- for bundles containing exemplary applications and demo code
RAP Runtime
There will be one repository for RAP itself (a.k.a. the runtime):
- git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/org.eclipse.rap.git (read-only)
- ssh://COMMITTER_ID@git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/org.eclipse.rap.git
Note: The project 'org.apache.tomcat' that used to be in runtime.rwt.test in CVS has been moved into its own Git repository org.apache.tomcat.git (browse, stats, fork on OrionHub) . If possible this project should be reused from the Gemini project (or from Orbit) in the future.
RAP Tools
.. and one repository for the RAP Tools:
- git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/org.eclipse.rap.tools.git (read-only)
- ssh://COMMITTER_ID@git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/org.eclipse.rap.tools.git
RAP Incubator
The RAP Incubator project is partitioned into components. Every component has its own repository:
- list of incubator repositories
- git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/incubator/org.eclipse.rap.incubator.COMPONENT.git (read-only)
- ssh://COMMITTER_ID@git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rap/incubator/org.eclipse.rap.incubator.COMPONENT.git
Working with Git
Commits
- Make commits of logical units, do not mix different topics in a single commit.
- When splitting up bigger tasks into logical units, every single commit should produce a consistent version, i.e. the test suite must pass after every commit.
- Make sure your commit does not introduce any unnecessary whitespace.
- Make sure your commit does not include any commented code, sysouts, etc.
- Make sure that the tests are included together with the fix.
Commit messages
Commit messages should follow the recommended format described in this article:
Capitalized, short (50 chars or less) summary More detailed explanatory text, if necessary. Wrap it to about 72 characters or so. In some contexts, the first line is treated as the subject of an email and the rest of the text as the body. The blank line separating the summary from the body is critical (unless you omit the body entirely); tools like rebase can get confused if you run the two together. Write your commit message in the present tense: "Fix bug" and not "Fixed bug." This convention matches up with commit messages generated by commands like git merge and git revert. Further paragraphs come after blank lines. - Bullet points are okay, too - Typically a hyphen or asterisk is used for the bullet, preceded by a single space, with blank lines in between, but conventions vary here - Use a hanging indent
Some further advice can be found here.
- The commit message should be understandable when reading through the commit log. That's why it should be simple and should make sense also without context.
- The body should explain the problem and the solution. It should also point out why the solution has been chosen, and what other alternatives have been considered, but discarded.
- The explanation should be understandable without external resources. It's good to provide the URL to a discussion or a bug, but the important points should also be summarized in the commit message.
Committing patches
- Make use the Author field in the commit is set to the original author.
- When committing a patch from someone else, add a "Signed-off-by: Committer Name <committer@email>" line to the commit message, to confirm that you agree with the patch and made sure the patch is IP clean.
