Are the procedures for using git with anything but an overlay on gentoo |
2 |
documented anywhere? |

I'm trying to make a correction to the devmanual (assuming this is |
5 |
supposed to be general access) for bug 293629. However, I can't seem to |
6 |
find where to clone the repository from. |

If this isn't supposed to be edited by devs at large, then somebody can |
9 |
feel free to close that bug. It had been open for ages so I figured I |
10 |
might just see if I could take care of it. |

12 |
In general I think that before we can really consider any kind of |
13 |
migration to git we need to actually publish at least a little |
14 |
documentation around how it is to be used. Sure, devs can read the |
15 |
various tutorials online, but what will Gentoo's policy be on putting |
16 |
branches in the official repository, and where should sources be checked |
17 |
out from, and what if anything do devs need to do besides a git push so |
18 |
that everybody doesn't get upset, etc. |

It need not be 40 pages of documentation, but for something we're |
21 |
already using in an official capacity there should probably be at least |
22 |
a little documentation. It exists for the overlays, although barely |
23 |
(just a bunch of commands without much explanation, and they are |
24 |
commands that would not be covered in any normal git tutorial). |
