Migration Plan
We've set up some wikis to capture what Platform-Releng is doing overall:
- Platform-releng/Git_Workflows - some common Git workflows for CVS users
- Platform-releng/Juno_Git_Migration - a starting page for the Juno migration
What we have to start with in CVS
- Platform UI, almost entirely in /cvsroot/eclipse UI projects to convert
- org.eclipse.ui.forms and org.eclipse.ui.browser and their test projects, which are currently worked on under Platform/UA but are included in the eclipse.platform.ui ACL
- bug 349150 - Convert Graduated bundles to git Eclipse 4 UI projects that graduated
- bug 349150 - Convert Graduated bundles to git Eclipse 4 Runtime projects that graduated
- bug 349177 - stitch ui.workbench fork back into main Compatibility workbench fork
- bug 349151 - Move e4 UI bundles to git E4 UI projects and experiments

The actual migration steps we'll be following can be found in the e4 migration repo.
It was based on Platform-releng/Juno_Git_Migration_Recipe and enhanced for some of our stickier problems
