[boost] [poly_collection] Questions about merging into Boost

[Joaquin M López Muñoz via Boost]

Boost.PolyCollection was recently accepted into Boost and I'm planning
to integrate it
into https://github.com/boostorg/ asap to begin test cycling. I am not
sure if the lib will
be in a good enough shape for launching with Boost 1.65, though. Questions:

1. The current repository is
https://github.com/joaquintides/poly_collection , which has
branches master (code) and website (for the online docs). Is the
following the right
procedure for integration with Boost?
a. Rename master to develop (https://gist.github.com/lttlrck/9628955 )
b. Transfer repo to boostorg
(https://help.github.com/articles/about-repository-transfers/ )
c. Ask for write permission to github.com/boostorg/poly_collection

2. Can the repo not have a master branch until I decide the lib is ready
for launch? Will
this result in poly_collection simply not being in Boost releases while
still develop
tests are cycling?

Thank you,

Joaquín M López Muñoz

I would advise you to retain master, instead of renaming it. Branch develop
off that and start the usual "work on develop, merge stable to master"
workflow.

b. Transfer repo to boostorg
(https://help.github.com/articles/about-repository-transfers/ )
c. Ask for write permission to github.com/boostorg/poly_collection

Yes. And (d) ask for the repo to be added as a submodule on the develop
branch of the superproject.

2. Can the repo not have a master branch until I decide the lib is ready
for launch?

There's no need for the repo to not have a master branch. Until it's
included as a submodule in the master superproject, it will not go out in a
release.

I can't transfer the repository as I seemingly
don't have the rights --this is what GitHub says at least. I opened an issue at boostorg/admin:

https://github.com/boostorg/admin/issues/124

Or am I supposed to do this thing differently?

Thank you

If you transfer it to me, I'll transfer it into boostorg.

I do think we need a better way to handle this though. Maybe it's
possible to have a halfway house github organisation that anyone can
add a repo to, and then an admin could transfer from there into the
main organisation.

If anyone has any other ideas, I opened an issue a while ago:

https://github.com/boostorg/admin/issues/118
