All, |

With the original overlays.gentoo.org Subversion repo back up, we were |
| 4 |
able to grab all history, and convert it into a mercurial form. Since |
| 5 |
this history was not available when I started the prefix-overlay, we |
| 6 |
have two sets of history now. I want to replace the existing |
| 7 |
prefix-overlay with the one I created that contains the merger of all |
| 8 |
history + mercurial commits. This requires everyone that has cloned |
| 9 |
this repo, to clone the new one. Therefore, I have revoked commit |
| 10 |
rights to the prefix-overlay, as new commits shouldn't go there. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The conversion of old history was more complex than simply importing it |
| 13 |
due to some operations like big renames in the past. I took the time to |
| 14 |
actually get this right, and glue everything together in a nice way. |
| 15 |
Because the current prefix-overlay has just a minimal amount of commits, |
| 16 |
I think that now is the time that we still can easily avoid ugly merge |
| 17 |
constructs and multiple initial commits in our repo, by converting |
| 18 |
everything into a single repo. However, since this changes the |
| 19 |
changesets involved, this repo is a new and unrelated one to the current |
| 20 |
prefix-overlay. Therefore, everyone needs to reclone it. |

Please take a look at: |
| 23 |
http://prefix.gentooexperimental.org/hg/prefix-tree |
| 24 |
It has history back to: |
| 25 |
http://prefix.gentooexperimental.org/hg/prefix-tree/log?rev=0 |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Those who got push access to the prefix-overlay, got it for this new |
| 28 |
prefix-tree repo. |

Sorry for the inconvenience, |
