Re: Complete Re: Moving the Repo

​

Hi Michael,


Added some issues Friday but see they are "lost in the zone".

Can you see where they are, retrieve them?


Thanks,

Jake

The repository migration is complete. All files that were in the wcag21 repository are now in the wcag repository, and all people who had commit access to the wcag21 repository now have commit access to the wcag repository. See:

https://github.com/w3c/wcag


There is a folder there that wasn't in the wcag21 repository, called "wcag20". This contains files that were used for WCAG 2.0, and should no longer be edited, but are retained for archival reasons.

It's a virtual guarantee something will not work as expected as a result of this migration. If you encounter any problems, let me know.

I will work on migrating issues a bit later.

Prior to migrating content, I merged most open pull requests and Understanding branches. It is possible some of that content was not in fact ready to be merged, but it would be harder to sort it out after the migration. It is possible to revert the changes introduced by the merges if needed.

Because they were all merged, I did not migrate the Understanding branches. I plan to recreate them soon to support further work.

I migrated all the branches with names starting with "tech-" so work on techniques can pick up in the new locations.

There were a couple technique branches that had been started before we introduced the new process to work on techniques. If have content in those branches you still want to work on, let me know and I'll help decide the best way forward.

There are some other branches that seemed to have stale content, which I did not merge or migrate. If there is a branch in the wcag21 repository containing content you think still should be available for development after the migration, let me know. You can look through them at https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/branches.


There is a branch named "WCAG_2.1" which is a snapshot of the WCAG 2.1 Recommendation (modulo the boilerplate) and not for editing. Mostly we will work on future versions of WCAG in the master branch, but if we decide something should be an erratum for WCAG 2.1, we will put it in this branch as well, and potentially could eventually publish an Edited or Amended Recommendation to incorporate those into the official version.

I am beginning the process of moving content from the wcag21 repository to the wcag repository. I have disabled write access to the wcag21 repository. When the transfer is complete, I will enable write access on the wcag repo and send around a follow-up message. Michael

AGWGer’s,
We are moving the repository that we will be working in from the w3c/wcag21 to w3c/wcag on Friday. We will be transferring over branches, including branches for techniques that are in development (although there is only a few of those). Once this is done the branches on the WCAG21 repo will be marked as read only.

Just a heads up…

Thanks,
AWK
