What are some arguments/reasonings for that? Whether it's a dependency |
| 16 |
on rsync or a dependency on git, a new Gentoo machine will need one of |
| 17 |
them in order to sync. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
I can understand mirrors may not want to run git cloning on their |
| 20 |
infra, that's a fair point as it requires additional setup (afaict). |
| 21 |
And syncing is technically a separate concern than version control, |
| 22 |
but if the entire point is to retain a changelog, and we're generating |
| 23 |
changelogs from git commits, then it seems to me that version control |
| 24 |
is the correct tool for the job. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
I'm not advocating for rsync to be done away with, as it has its |
| 27 |
benefits, but changelogs are logically related to version control. |
