I'm working on converting the JOSM svn repositories to git. I am now at
the point where I need to map svn usernames to git.
What I need from you:
* The name you want your patches to be attributed to
* The email you want your patches to be attributed to
o As a reminder, this email /will/ be publicly visible via git
history. GitHub and GitLab both have `noreply` email addresses.
o Grant Slater (firefishy) has the map used for migrating
http://svn.openstreetmap.org/ to git. This will likely be used
as a "last resort"; if the attribution from that conversion is
OK, then no action is necessary.
* Optionally, the timezone offset for your patches (UTC±offset)
Notes on the conversion:
* `patch by <foo>` commits have been modified such that the originator
("<foo>") is shown as the author, while the committer remains unchanged.
* Doesn't do much to reduce repo size -- `git lfs` could be used for
this prior to the final conversion
* The `dist` directory for plugin releases has been excluded from the
test repository due to size constraints
* Does not split plugins into their own repositories. This can be done
later.
* plugin externals were converted to submodules; if a plugin had
externals in it, those were /not/ converted
WIP Repositories (please do not fork these; I may rebuild them at any
time as I get new attribution information):
* JOSM core: https://github.com/tsmock/josm
* JOSM plugins + jmapviewer: https://github.com/tsmock/josm-osmsvn-svn2git
