Hi,

I've asked myself what should happen to a git repo after orphaning a
package? It is easy with subversion: we just move the directory from
trunk/ into ../old/. I want to suggest to move a git repo to the
/home/groups/pkg-java/OLDGIT/ directory on git.debian.org. I've done
that with javatar.git. Any better ideas?

Cheers,
Torsten

Maybe call that directory ORPHANED or HISTORIC instead of OLDGIT?

Not doing anything? Or, instead make an mr-list of repositories for
non-orpahned packages.

IIUC, it is (almost) mandatory to do for SVN maintained packages, because
you may not want to checkout those repositories. But, that doesn't stand
for Git. So I may be wrong and you may have another reason that I wish to
know

Cheers.

That makes sense. I've moved the javatar.git back into /git/pkg-java/.

Cheers,
