Oh... sorry:  Here is the discussion.

"Repository for kst" by netterfield
Summary:

-kst was a part of extragear/graphics back in qt3/kde3 days.
-it is now a pure qt4 or qt5 app (*)
-we have been using svn.kde until recently. After a short meander over to 
github (**), the repository is now at git at git.kde.org:scratch/netterfield/kst-
plot.
-we would like to once again be part of kde.

Questions:
-Is our old home of extragear/graphics the right place to go? 
extragear/science would be better, but it doesn't exist. 
-Can we move straight back to our old home of extragear/graphics, or should we 
need to do the path through playground and review?

* we are pure qt in order to make it easier for our growing number of windows 
and mac users.
** I was under the impression that pure qt apps could not be part of extragear 
and that we had to move. Albert and Eike have informed me that this is not 
true. So... we are back :-)

The repository and projects.kde.org entries have been set up at 
extragear/graphics, with the admin and description as you indicated.

Scripty will be adjusted automatically to retrieve the sources from the new 
locations once the initial push has been completed and the project admins have 
filled in the trunk and stable i18n branch information in Settings -> 
Repository for each project. Note that if you do not have a stable branch you 
should set none in the stable i18n branch and not master.

LXR and EBN will be adjusted automatically at their next run, which might take 
max a week.

The ReviewBoard entry will be set up by David after you have pushed and 
reopened this ticket.

Please note that you will need to run the "hooks enable" server-side command 
after the initial push to enable the email hooks and write access to non-repo-
admins: http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitKdeOrgManual#hooks-enable

You should also remove the sources from SVN after completing the push so 
scripty doesn't get confused by sources being found in two places at once. The 
customary way to do this is to initially replace the folder contents with a 
README file pointing at the new location, and then to remove the entire folder 
a few weeks later.

Also please note that git push --all does not push tags. git push --tags does.
This is frequently forgotten. Both arguments cannot be used at the same time.

Please reopen this bug after the push has been completed.  IMPORTANT: please 
ensure the repository setting Enable development sites is enabled on KDE 
Projects in Settings -> Repository. Else no translations can be made.

I'm doing something wrong: Suggestions?

[cbn at ice kst]$ git remote add origin 
git at git.kde.org:projects/extragear/graphics/kst-plot
[cbn at ice kst]$ git push --all origin
FATAL: W any projects/extragear/graphics/kst-plot netterfield DENIED by 
fallthru
(or you mis-spelled the reponame)
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

You will find the repository located at kde:kst-plot (aka. git at git.kde.org:kst-
plot).
These access urls can also be found on the projects.kde.org page for kst-plot.

As when I first pushed to scratch, I'm getting a commit hook failure because of 
line endings for
i) old files that are longer in the project - but are part of the history
ii) files that no longer have the wrong line endings (but did in the history)
iii) binary image (fits) files.

Can the commit audit be suspended until I have successfully committed?

thanks
Barth

This has now been done in http://commits.kde.org/repo-management/09e110b15cf2963b869da1e5bfa298695991ca92

kst-plot has been pushed.
Is there a website with instructions on how to make sure everything is set up 
properly for translations, etc?

1 Months Ago Administrators -- 12/5/13, 9:06 PM
Thanks, i've now removed the audit exceptions.

In terms of ensuring everything is properly setup, please follow the 
instructions given above. If you need further guidance on translations I 
suggest you contact the translation co-ordinator, Albert Astals Cid (tsdgeos 
on Freenode).

Thanks,
Ben

Please enable the regular commit hooks as well, as noted above in the repo 
creation text.

Excellent, thanks. Everything seems to be sorted out now, so closing this 
ticket.

Thanks,
