[RFC PATCH 0/3] Support for importing in builtin-fetch

Daniel Barkalow· Jan 11, 2009, 20:12 UTC · lore

This series is an attempt to standardize importers and exporters for non-git upstream repositories, and to allow the normal git programs to use them transparently when configured to do so. So far, it only includes fetch/import, but the implementation there is sufficient to get "git fetch" to import data from a foreign system, set the configured remotes/ refs, and produce a working FETCH_HEAD (so "git pull" also works).

Part 4/3 is yet another p4 importer, which is mostly interesting as an example (although it does do a passable job of supporting integrates, which I haven't seen in another client-side p4 importer).
