@jreed:matrix.orgOn the subject, does anyone in this chat have experience creating a new repository? I'm learning how to do it and its taking me a while.  Am hoping someone with experience/time can help me speed it up.14:03
@tcervi:matrix.orgjreed:  Recently scott.little helped me to create the starlingx/virt repository: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/project-config/+/87907615:44
This repo was basically a split from code that was previously inside stx/integ to a new place
I don't remember if other changes were required on different repos, but I know that there was this topic to handle the manifest update and moving between repos: https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:virt-repo

Scott has some script that will split out the repo to another one while preserving history. I'm waiting on him to make a github repo for me, and then he gave me a process to do what you're saying.
@jreed:matrix.orgThis is what I have:16:00
git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/project-config
cd project-config
git review -s
Create a commit similar to this one ... https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/project-config/+/887070
git review
wait for it to be reviewed and merged ... then notify me as to who in initial set of core reviewers needs to be.
populate your new git
add it to the StarlingX manifest under .repo/manifests/ similar to ... https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/manifest/+/887169
git review
@tcervi:matrix.orgwe might have to re-evaluate documentation on how to create new stx repositories. it is not a common practice to create new repos, but should be as smooth as possible right?16:43
@jreed:matrix.orgThis was pointed out to me but didn't seem like the whole picture.  I did not find anything else.  18:35
