Hi,

I'm don't really mind whether we do submodules or not, as long as bootstrap will be able to deal with older git versions that do not support submodules. If we got the development history of these modules, say ccp4io, I would be happy to convert them to git, too.
It forms part of a larger debate if we want to merge modules such as ccp4io into the cctbx repository, or break them apart - for example I suspect eg. xfel could move into a separate repository. Again I can offer to merge the histories and/or separate projects. But these decisions are above my paygrade.

-Markus

Boost has already an official git repository but SCons does not.  So for SCons, the git submodule solution would indeed require creating git repositories. What about ccp4io? There is no official git repo, is there?

Just to make it clear what I meant with “one single commit”: copy the whole SCons directory at the top of the cctbx hierarchy, then “git add scons” and then “git commit”.
