IDEA : git repository

lgstoian · May 28, 2010

I find that many developers are working on porting android 2.1 or 1.6 vanila and it result in much duplicated work.
I was thinking of maybe setting up 2 git repositories one for 1.6 AOSP and 2.1 AOSP on which everyone can work on, improve and fix bugs.

That's a nice idea, im begging to look after a site to host the repositories...

We can use github for hosting or any other site. I'm interested in looking after the repositories too.
A centralized effort will always be better then a fragmented one.

If you have alot of money, then Github would be ok... But it costs $50/month for the package that is minimum for two sets of android source code...

Know any places where we can host the code?

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general

Gitorious and Github are both free and unlimited for open source projects.

We can use sourcefordge too. The offer svn and git repositories. So what about it folks, who would be interested?

kiljacken · May 28, 2010

I would be interested in this...

lgstoian · May 28, 2010

I think we should open a project on sourcefordge for android 2.2 with the first task being to get the new kernel (2.6.32) working on the tattoo.

It could host the long awaited universal froyo upgrade

That will be hard becuase the new kernel (2.6.32) is very big so we would need something like GRUB to boot it, from another partition than the boot partition...

If we disable enough modules the size should go down but that would mean it won't be universal any more.
There could be a regular version and a 'lite' version for Tattoo and older phones.

Wait wait wait.
I can play full divx movies smoothly so some seldom used modules could be stored on sd with no prob.
