I guess we should have a default tree on xenbits for this?

This looks a lot like the qemu stuff which you only just moved into its
own script. Can we not share it?

Like Linus said, thanks to distributed version control systems, it
doesn''t actually matter where the repository is anymore :-)

I am not sure it is a good idea, after all we don''t plan to fork it,
right?
It is the same thing as with ipxe: we just use the official repo.

But that means that if the sites hosting ipxe or qemu go down, people
can''t build Xen.  Keeping a copy on xen.org removes external
dependencies we don''t have any control over.

Better than multiple independent points of failure.

However, we already depend on the upstream ipxe site. Changing over to all
downloads from a single site under our control would be a separate issue and
patch, imo.

In technical terms perhaps not but for practical reasons we want the
default tree which we point people to live next to all the other default
trees, otherwise they won''t be able to reliably find it the sea of
suchs
trees which we will eventually have under /people/. Linus'' tree being
just one of a thousand trees under git.kernel.org was always a pain
IMHO.

We also want to test and automatically push a tested branch like we do
for the other trees and we really don''t want to give the test system
access to your (or anyone else''s) xenbits account.

With the number of trees which we have now we should maybe consider
putting each branch in a subdir:
	[/staging]/xen-unstable/xen.hg
	                       /qemu-xen.hg
                               /qemu.git
		               /seabios.git 
	[/staging]/xen-4.2/xen.hg
	                  /...

? (staging could also go after the dir I suppose)

Planning not to fork is not the same as not forking.

For example, imagine a bug (or security issue) is discovered in seabios
and we want to backport it to our (by then) xen-4.2-testing branch. Do
we take all the other updates to seabios trunk into our stable branch to
get the one we want or do we ask them to push it to a branch just for
us? Or do we now need to scrabble to setup trees, update the links and
retest etc while trying to get an (perhaps critical) update out? Far
better to just start off hosting a tree on xenbits, even if it doesn''t
diverge at all.

That''s a bad thing, for the same reasons.

Or we could make use of git and hg''s internal branching capabilities I
guess.

Seabios already provides two stable branches: if a security issue is
discovered, the Seabios guys will backport the fix to their stable
branches and we just need to update the TAG (or set the TAG to
0.6.1-stable to begin with).

The only problem is that no stable branches have xen support yet.
