# [RFC PATCH 0/3] Support for importing in builtin-fetch 2 messages from 2009-01-11 to 2009-01-11. Participants: Daniel Barkalow, Johannes Schindelin. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/17093 ## Daniel Barkalow, 2009-01-11 20:12 Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] Support for importing in builtin-fetch Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/alpine.LNX.1.00.0901110318530.19665%40iabervon.org ``` 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). -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2009-01-11 20:20 Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH 0/3] Support for importing in builtin-fetch Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/alpine.DEB.1.00.0901112120230.3586%40pacific.mpi-cbg.de In-Reply-To: ``` Hi, On Sun, 11 Jan 2009, Daniel Barkalow wrote: > 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.
