We also talk about how protection of the trademark Git will happen in the future. Unfortunately, my interview with Peff got cut slightly short because of technical difficulties. Since this is probably the last GitMinutes episode ever, there’s going to be a little sentimental blabbering after the interview, so stay tuned for that if you’re into that stuff, or just read my personal blog post here.If you want to see what I'm up to next, you can keep track of me on Twitter as @tfnico or on my blog.

He has a lot of thoughts and ideas on development, community and code reviews, especially in open source and especially in the development of Git itself.We talk to Johannes about the difficulties of contributing to Git itself, and tools that could make the experience more user friendly, like for example public-inbox, which is both a mailing list archive and a Git repository.Johannes on Twitter, GitHubGit for Windows"The End of Gmane?" by its maintainer, Lars IngebrigtsenGit mailing list archives on public-inbox.orgOutline:00:00:00 Intro 00:00:46 Hello Johannes 00:01:01 What was the most interesting discussion at the dev summit? 00:02:44 How does the mailing list for Git really work 00:03:34 What is Public Inbox? 00:08:14 How can patches be aligned with public inbox topics? 00:14:34 Let's talk about the What's Cooking email 00:20:22 What about tracking patch series that get rewritten? 00:22:05 Gerrit solves this with a change-id, can we do that for the Git mailing list? 00:23:43 What would happen if we allowed HTML mails onto the mailing list? 00:26:54 Should the review take place locally or online? 00:28:09 If we had this standard format for doing reviews, how could we use it otherwise? 00:29:22 How can we make this happen? 00:30:43 Anything else you want to share from the conference? 00:33:03 Outro

He’s a developer from Atlassian BitBucket, and at Git Merge this year, he shared some interesting experiments they have been making using clone bundles, which is a technique from Mercurial that will dramatically improve performance of repository cloning.

We are (temporarily) back after a long hiatus! What triggers this action is Git Merge 2017 that took place in Brussels back in February. This is the first of multiple episodes from the conference.Link to mp3Listen to the episode on YouTubeFirst up is Stefan Beller of Google. He is a Git core contributor who has recently been picking up git-submodules to bring them back into shape. We'll hear about his current work on that. It's not the first time Stefan is on the podcast, back in 2015 he spoke about improving the Git protocol.GitMinutes recording setup in the mysterious "up-side-down room".Second guest of the day is J Wyman from Microsoft. There's been quite some development on Windows and in Visual Studio since I last had them on the podcast (Martin Woodward in 2013, and Jameson Miller in 2015) now J gives us a well-needed update.Episode outline:00:00:00 Intro 00:02:22 Submodules at the contributors' summit? 00:03:07 Why do people hate on submodules so much? 00:04:12 Aren't submodules done and ready? 00:05:25 What is the difference to other multi-repo handlers? 00:06:59 Plan for the future? 00:07:52 Welcome J Wyman 00:08:17 What were the highlights from the contributors' summit? 00:08:54 What do you do at Microsoft? 00:10:22 What are the issues with switching away from libgit2? 00:11:21 Are you still using libgit2 anywhere? 00:13:10 How do you use core Git? 00:14:16 Which of the discussed Git improvements are most interesting? 00:15:07 Who contributes to Git from Microsoft? 00:16:18 Anything else I should ask you about? 00:17:43 OutroIntro script:As you may or may not know, during the Git Merge conference, which is sort of a user-oriented happening, there is a less known event taking place called the Git Contributor Summit, where many of the contributors to Git itself get together to talk core development, face to face. This is a gold mine for GitMinutes interviews, and this is the third Git-Merge I’ve gone to with my wife’s trusty singstar microphones.I got a total of 8 interviews, and it’s all top-notch quality talk with core contributors and people with some really hefty ideas on how to bring Git forward in the years to come. AGAIN Git Merge was a place to talk about scaling Git, but we also discussed how to get more diverse contributions into Git itself, and how to advance the current world state of discussions and reviews *around* commits. You’ll hear more about that in the coming episodes. For the first of the two interviews in this episode, I grabbed Stefan Beller from Google. He is a seasoned Git-Merge participant and core contributor. You may remember that I interviewed him two years ago. At the contributor summit this year he brought up one of the most hated (and perhaps also most loved) parts of Git itself: submodules!After that I talk to J Wyman from Microsoft about how they are now actually using the full Git core from within Visual Studio, among many interesting things he has to report from Redmond.

It’s used by big companies like Google, Sony, Ericsson and many others. It’s a very powerful tool where you can push up your suggested changes and have them reviewed naturally, and you can also get feedback from continuous integration tools like Jenkins to make sure that your suggested changes don’t break the build. And Gerrit is the main thing we’ll talk about today.Links:Luca, GitEnterprise (blog, GitHub, Twitter, Facebook)Use the Force, Luca (article on InfoQ)Learning Gerrit Code Review (Luca's book)GerritForge GitEnterpriseLuca’s InfoQ talk on Gerrit Introducing GerritHub, Gerrit Code Review on GitHub (video)Continuous Integration Entwicklungs Workflow (Python, GerritHub, Jenkins) (video)Scaling Mercurial at Facebook (blog post)Scaling Source Control at Facebook (video with the same message)The infamous force push (mailing list discussion)Luca's Git pro-tip:Use your Git local repopository as your journal and your Git commits as the explicit, simple and useful phrases of it.
