| 16:10.10 | JeffM | Nobody will ever need its history |
| 16:10.34 | JeffM | It was an expirement someone did |
| 16:10.39 | JeffM | Kill it |
| 16:11.16 | JeffM | It never belonged in the project in the first place |

| 17:46.02 | macsforme | couldn't the same argument be made for just about every project in bzflag-tools and bzflag-archive? |
| 17:47.29 | JeffM | yes |
| 17:47.39 | macsforme | I'm all for taking a chisel to all the dead parts of our project, but some consistency would be good |
| 17:47.59 | JeffM | most of them are only there because back in the sourceforge days it's was a pain to create individual repositories |
| 17:48.13 | JeffM | in the modern GIT world they would all be repos owned by the authors |
| 17:48.38 | JeffM | then if the project wanted them, the project would add a fork to the org. |
| 17:48.55 | JeffM | but back in the day people just needed "somewhere(tm)" to stash code |
| 17:49.36 | JeffM | if they are not activly used in the current project, they shoudl be pruned to some other archive account. |
| 17:52.50 | *** join/#bzflag nadir (~nadir@unaffiliated/znadir) |
| 17:54.37 | macsforme | or just left where they originally were, in the sourceforge repository |
| 17:55.32 | JeffM | that would also work, people who want to search history can be told to go there |
| 17:56.00 | JeffM | and they can pull from that SVN into a personal git repo if they want to extend the code |
| 17:56.05 | macsforme | but really I feel like splitting them into their own repositories, at least for now, is the most realistic and least contentious way to move forward for the time being, so I favor allejo's proposal |
| 17:56.50 | macsforme | something small is better than nothing |
| 18:22.47 | blast007 | why put in extra effort towards code that isn't useful/important? |
| 18:26.23 | blast007 | for bzflag-tools, the bzstats could just get removed, bzedit hasn't been possibly to build for years (since, iirc, gtkglarea has been long since removed) |
| 18:27.24 | blast007 | stats_collector is what (I believe) works with the pushstats plugin |
| 18:28.10 | JeffM | whats a link to stats collector, I can verify if that's what it is or not |
| 18:28.27 | JeffM | and yeah, nobody will be able to build old linux bzedit |
| 18:28.28 | blast007 | https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag-tools/tree/stat_collector |
| 18:28.52 | JeffM | yeah that |
| 18:29.10 | JeffM | that's not pushstats, that's pullstats |
| 18:29.16 | JeffM | it runs and pulls data |
| 18:29.19 | blast007 | ah |
| 18:29.21 | JeffM | it's what I was using to build charts |
| 18:29.29 | JeffM | it's basicly a C# implementation of strayer's stuff |
| 18:30.00 | JeffM | doesn't need to be in the project at all. the importnt part (how to poll data) is kept in /misc as those scripts |
| 18:41.43 | blast007 | for bzflag-web, pastebin/ is pointless, bzgrpmgr/ has never been used (and is tied to the bzauthd thing we never used), bzfls2/ could just go away, misc/servertest.php doesn't look too useful, mainsite/ hasn't been the website for a LONG time and still mentions "Windows 95 or newer", bzfstats/ and gamestats/ I'm unsure of, oldstats/ is the old stats site, and then we're just left with art/, bzfls/, listke |
| 18:41.50 | blast007 | ymgr/, and submitimages/ |

| 19:06.22 | blast007 | oh, and then there's also gsoc_bzauthd, gamestats_live, and masterban as branches |
| 20:09.27 | blast007 | and I did test the the latest c-ares last night and it does indeed fix the delayed DNS issue I had in the past, so I will be pulling in the latest c-ares and curl for the bzflag-dependencies repo |

| 23:46.18 | BulletCatcher | One of my main goals in the SVN->Git conversion was to make it unnecessary to ever use the Subversion repo again. |
| 23:46.23 | BulletCatcher | Keeping the junk that is in the alternate Git repos helps make that happen, and I recommend leaving them alone unless there are plans to do something meaningful with them. |
| 23:46.24 | BulletCatcher | In that context, simply deleting bzwtransform from the bzflag repo (where it will remain in history) is sufficient. |
| 23:48.44 | BulletCatcher | Just be sure to mention "bzwtransform" in the deletion commit log to make it easier for future archaeologists to find. |
