Change log:  Notes about using Git and CVS source code

  **Q:** Are we going to keep the existing development model where we  
have a "master" server (i.e. cvs.horde.org) where we will build the  
releases?  For our workflow, that seems to make the most sense - since  
we don't have a "master" user that checks all commits before  
integrating.

  **A:** Yes. We'll figure this out as we work on Horde 4, to some  
extent, but my expectation is that we will all push commits to  
dev.horde.org:/horde/git/horde (or horde-hatchery, etc.), and we'll  
use branches to do local dev or to coordinate non-mainline work.
+
+**Q:** How do I combine the CVS and Git trees so I can test/develop  
current Horde 4 code?
+
+**A:** Some of this is still being worked out, and these instruction  
might change as development moves forward, but the current suggestion  
is:
+
+* Update/pull most recent changes into the various repositories
+* Use the horde-fw-symlinks.php script to link the various framework  
libraries to your include directory.
+
+<code>
+horde-fw-symlinks.php --src /var/www/html/horde/framework --dest  
/var/www/pear
+horde-fw-symlinks.php --src /usr/local/githorde/framework --dest  
/var/www/pear
+horde-fw-symlinks.php --src /usr/local/horde-hatchery/framework  
--dest /var/www/pear
+</code>
+
+* Note that if your filesystem is NOT case sensitive (i.e. HFS+ on  
the Mac) then you will need to have two separate include directories -  
one for the CVS framework libraries and one for the Git framework  
libraries. You will need to make sure to put the Git include directory  
first in your include_path.
+
+<code>
+horde-fw-symlinks.php --src /var/www/html/horde/framework --dest  
/var/www/pear
+horde-fw-symlinks.php --src /usr/local/githorde/framework --dest  
/var/www/gitpear
+horde-fw-symlinks.php --src /usr/local/horde-hatchery/framework  
--dest /var/www/gitpear
+</code>
+
+
+* For the actual Horde applications that have been moved to Git,  
there are a few options.  You could either copy the application  
directory back and forth from your /horde directory, or you could try  
to use a joint CVS/Git source tree.  Both methods have drawbacks.  
Issues with the former are obvious - you need to pull, copy, code,  
copy, push etc... The issue with second method is that you will either  
get lots of warnings about files that aren't tracked, or you could try  
to manage an ignore list for both CVS and Git.
