Migration from trac
Cabal used to be hosted in a darcs repository with an accompanying Trac for bugs and a wiki. However, the popularity of github was too much to resist, and the project was moved to git some time in April 2012 (cf. 16ed5a5a).
The issues were imported en masse. Unfortunately, the issue numbers didn't quite match up, so cross-references were broken. However, they're normally fewer than 10 apart, and each original Trac ID is included in the imported tickets, so it's generally possible to find what you were looking for by manually tweaking the ticket number.
The wiki was not mass-imported, but we have begun importing it page-by-page, updating syntax where necessary. While I'm looking at pages this closely, I've divided them into the following (purely provisional) categories:
- DependencyAnalysis
- DependencyResolution
- ExtendingCabal
- HBuild
- PackageDescriptionSemantics
- PackageEnvironments
- RubyGems
- SCons
- SandboxedBuildsAndIsolatedEnvironments
- StableInterfaces
- WikiStart
- HackageDB/*
- Trac stuff:
- InterMapTxt
- InterTrac
- InterWiki
- PageTemplates
- RecentChanges
- SandBox
- TitleIndex
- Trac*
- Wiki* (apart from WikiStart)
- TicketDifficulties is no longer relevant.
