Note that we stopped doing repocopies when we switched to subversion in 2012. If you are talking about doing a svn copy/move to record the ancestry of a new file, you don't any more, git does not record file moves or copies. If you are talking about the resurrection of a port, it would be possible to achieve the conservation of history by creating a branch before the port was removed, updating the port, and merging it back into the main branch using a merge strategy keeping the files on the branch being merged. But it would probably make reading the logs very ugly, and add merges everywhere, which we don't want anyway. --=20 Mathieu Arnold --wo6scxfoznbg6qtj Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAABCgB9FiEEVhwchfRfuV0unqO5KesJApEdfgIFAmBlfS1fFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDU2 MUMxQzg1RjQ1RkI5NUQyRTlFQTNCOTI5RUIwOTAyOTExRDdFMDIACgkQKesJApEd fgKPng/+IshoXPZGqx2gLcWiLwJtYkOm9lnL16yD3sjPXUEctlI68dTCK0yHxkB5 J7zswtcp/untZET/geOEgusFozzBC6LSoPJsYSMMxYeP1H6jDooq7DKdU86WRM4o UWpl0rNnM9IsFm5OiXHI6KFDb7F1Nn7yqpj3Qqt7y+Pe1vjp2DZw6TIvt6Tdk54z 7ilVtxNqPfo11uLrtODuR/dobQa8zcG5NPNVaSSJMrQontFbHwExXZZjStVE26W2 mN0nndSliCNX38nJZS/r9NUgp13zrC7TiEjNNIv/lmLxiKxnPIVXY04THQX/WZux vXFFzI2v7jLl6/0LmaxrUK1NsJ6FDeqwHtpuMhYDk6dFX3y4DUkktbm2uSb/Bn8S UNCg1tYtQgAxLYN8gnhqkaTQpg0AqyHAB27vCeWtzR6Le5ELPrwS/Q1X2D2FF3fp MmAW/h/n+SGR6yQ1VZRp1EQu49/7bZpN8wS4zi8zS/ggDoBxv40VQt3Kj7T/Pldc yNnx0BKfr1+SdgjegKS983m7D9iG7HUmzAFgHG07jfpHZV30CO985ARTqy3FGEpH r/a595W6TThK8LsOjP0KGyDXoyden1a6B4+XgRu80rBMVTY5oCdvTlwxOmmawW34 7hWPMlvbayg157UX8Jw4ZmomB7ir/Sxc/ywG0L3w+jbKtAmEqmA= =HeD9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --wo6scxfoznbg6qtj--
