Issue tracker migration

Due to lack of features, poor performance and outages, we are migrating our Issue Tracker from java.net Issuezilla to a JIRA instance.

Volunteer Mike Vorburger did this. References:

Subversion migration checklist

Due to an old SVN version, poor performance and outages, we migrated our Subversion repository from java.net to SourceForge.

TODO

• set up backups of new repo
• block commits at old (java.net) repo

DONE

• request dump of java.net mifos repository from Eric Renaud (CollabNet)
  • used svnsync to pull down full mirror instead. Currently on birch at ~adamm/svn_mirror/mifos
    • svnsync init file://$HOME/svn_mirror/mifos https://mifos.dev.java.net/svn/mifos
    • create mostly empty (but executable) $HOME/svn_mirror/mifos/hooks/pre-revprop-change script
    • svnsync sync file://$HOME/svn_mirror/mifos
• upload dump from java net on sourceforge
• disable commit permissions on java.net to prevent commits to the old repository
• resolve http://sf.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/ticket/5746
• point Hudson to the new subversion repo
• have active committers sign up on sourceforge and get commit rights
  • John Woodlock, Keith Woodlock
  • Keith Randall
  • Udai Gupta
  • Sungard: Chandan Rao,
  • Keith Pierce
  • Adam Monsen, Adam Feuer, Adam Monsen, Van Mittal-Henkle, Jeff Brewster, Ryan Whitney
  • Johan Hilding
  • Kimloan Ho
  • Pootle auto-commit user
• instruct anyone with a checkout to svn switch --relocate to the new repo
• migrate merge tracking information
  • keep using svnmerge for now... we'll likely migrate to Mercurial instead of using built-in SVN merging
• point mifos.org and other links to java.net svn to sourceforge svn
• create "mifospootle" user on sourceforge
• enable commit emails using a hook script
• if using a new commit email alias, update mifoscommits google group and mifos.scm on gmane
• connect with http://cia.vc
• update fisheye url to http://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/mifos
