All the work is now done, we have cleaned up repos and branches that were not used.
I also just updated the kernel c8s source-git repo to contain the latest changes coming from dist-git: https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-stream-8/-/commit/...
Have a safe Friday the 13th all, Tomas

The decommissioning of c8s source-git branches will begin this week.
You can read details about the plan here: https://github.com/packit/source-git-onboarding/#decommissioning or in the previous email below.
The list of packages we are going to process can be found in this json file: https://github.com/packit/source-git-onboarding/blob/main/packages.json
Just a reminder that we are NOT going to touch any Stream 9 source-git repos, this is only about the Stream 8 source-git repos that are created from unpacked archives. Please let us know if any of your workflows gets disrupted, our aim is to make this transparent and seamless.
Folks in CC: this message is just a heads-up since you are committers in gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/*/-/commits/c9s

Hello, we would like to announce our plan to decommission and remove the c8s branches of the CentOS Stream source-git repositories. This also means the removal of any repository from the gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src namespace which is left without a branch. Stream 9 content will not be affected.
As you might remember, these are the source-git repositories produced by unpacking the c8s branches from CentOS Stream 8 dist-git, and making the resulting content available at gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src.
We took a look at the utilization of this content during 2021, based on the GitLab data and found out that no one from the community has used these repositories to contribute to CentOS Stream 8. The only exception is the kernel repository [1], we will keep that one up.
Please let us know if you find these repositories useful or are part of your routine.
Our focus for the future is to deliver a consistent source-git workflow for Fedora and CentOS Stream under the umbrella of Fedora source-git SIG [2].
