Wishfully exclaiming "Happy cloning!" is pretty ironic. This feature is a blatant "clone" of GitHub.com's approach to project collaboration. Why not at least acknowledge them and give credit where credit is due?
I really appreciate this feature, but I have to be honest. The overall Google Code Project Hosting site is in dire need of a UI overhaul. The projects people follow and are owners of seem too isolated. There is a need for a better integration. This is especially true for the would-be dashboard: http://code.google.com/u/username/
Jay, this is one of the ways that distributed version control is supposed to work, so GitHub has nothing special in this respect. Launchpad could well be prior art to GitHub in this respect, but the very use of distributed version control would be prior art to Launchpad.
Both, Mercurial and Git, where publicly announced in 2005. Both are very fine distributed version control systems and I am happy to see that Google now supports one of them. No need to bitch around!
good to find advancements here where my request is code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=2136 why not integrate deployement, versioncontrol and codeedits like this
%3in1 onlineworkuiintegrated onlinecodeeditor defines working environment not only adminui, workui, not only adminui, integrated dev htmlui: -codeeditor ie workui -vcs sync -adminui ie nobrainer already -easy quick adjust obvious instead of local -facilitates quickedits even extreme strenous, all dev needs telnet or tunnel, no windowmanager=superior performance and security
I think this feature would be a lot more useful if non-project-owners could create clones and own them. Launchpad has a facility like that and it's very good.

ReplyDeleteJust buy GitHub.
ReplyDeleteJay: You're giving GH too much credit. Stop hating and either use the feature or shutup.

ReplyDeleteDon't let the haters get you down. This is an amazing feature, and I for one can't thank you enough.
ReplyDeleteTom, I had the impression that that is what the server-side personal user clones are about.
