[rules-dev] [maven-feedback] kie-commons should be in the same git repository as kie-api

Hi Alexandre, Some of your recent pom.xml changes might introduce a new issue. What changes are an issue? ================= Creating this repo https://github.com/droolsjbpm/kie-commons (in conjunction with adding a SNAPSHOT dependency to it from several projects) Why is that an issue? ============= * Every extra git repository introduces overhead: o slows down the git-all update o slows down the mvn-all build o add a new jenkins job (which triggers more jenkins jobs) o Introduces complexity to understand the repo list here: https://github.com/droolsjbpm * Much of the orchestration of a new git repo is missing o jenkins jobs (so SNAPSHOTs are build and deployed to nexus) o Part of release procedure. + Currently, master can't be released because kie-commons needs to be released first o ... * The kie-commons pom.xml duplicates the droolsjbpm-parent pom o DRY o Out of sync issues + Different dependency/plugin versions + ... How can you fix it? ============ Proposal: * Put module kie-commons in same repo as kie-api o https://github.com/droolsjbpm/droolsjbpm-knowledge * Change kie-common/pom.xml: remove all duplicate pom code and make it like kie-api/pom.xml * Delete git repo kie-commons === Can you take a look at fixing it? (Let me know if you can't fix it in a timely manner.) With kind regards, Geoffrey
