#37279: git-core: Rename to git
-------------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: raimue@… | Owner: ciserlohn@…
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2
Keywords: | Port: git-core git
-------------------------+--------------------------
Rename `git-core` to `git`.
The port was named git-core as the original intention of the upstream
project was to use git in a larger set of tools. This has not turned out
to be true and thus, this port should be renamed to plain `git`. This name
is not taken by any pre-existing port and would be easier to recognize the
right thing for new users. The dependent ports need to be updated as well.
Please keep git-core as a `replaced_by` stub port such that old references
in tutorials still work as expected.
