Bug#516777: please ship git helpers specific to d-o-m (checkout, new-git-repo, ...)
Package: dh-ocaml
Version: 0.4.1
Severity: wishlist
[ TODO-list item / reminder kind of bug report ]
As Debian OCaml Task Force we have some Git specific helper tools, for
example to checkout or create Git repositories. They are currently
stored in the d-o-m svn, under projects/git-guide/.
That location is kind of silly (my fault :-)), because everyone of us
which uses them has to make symlinks to them in more appropriate
places. It would make sense to ship them as executables as part of
"dh-ocaml", which is meant to help development of OCaml-related Debian
packages.
The only issue which needs to be faced is that of proper naming, on
one hand the names shold make it clear that they are d-o-m specific,
on the other hand names like "checkout-d-o-m-repo" are really
horrible :-)
Currently, the tool list includes:
- checkout-d-o-m-repo
- d-o-m-mrconfig
- new-d-o-m-git-repo
Note: they are even incoherently named!
Cheers.
