I know that João said he didn't want to discuss the topic, but I'll say
it anyway. The necessity to preserve the history seems superfluous to
me. emacs.git has projects like Org or the Modus Themes that are
developed out of tree and are regularly synchronised back without any
major issues.
Org is still being developed out of tree, though. So any history digs
are probably going to occur in its own repo.
IIUC, Joao want to move Eglot entirely into Emacs and be done with
github at some soon-ish point.
I am not sure about that, in his message he wrote the following:
5. Arrange for the eglot.el file in Eglot's current upstream --
https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot -- to mirror
src/progmodes/eglot.el, ideally (but not necessarily) automatically
This is so that:
5.1 Users of bare Git clones can continue mostly unimpeded.
5.2 GitHub users can still suggest changes as "Pull Requests"
via GitHub's interface
5.3 The current GitHub actions CI -- where installation of third-party
language servers is relatively easy -- can run at least the current
eglot-tests.el.
Maybe there would be a point in "copying" the history into emacs.git,
but this is a continuous process that would have to be synchronised on
both sides (emacs.git and GitHub) all the time. That sounds like more
effort than the history is worth.
