Ideas for the Google Summer Of Code 2007

Main page: 2007

monotone

• attach/detach
• access pattern visualization
• commit message match status output
• rename --guess
• clean
• diff --ignore-whitespace
• .mtn-template

• automatic updating of the sample output in the tutorial

• subversion importer

• boost::filesystem::path replacement
• proper character set and line separator handling based on file attributes
• some kind of --format="" support for automate
• selectors overhaul?
• automated man page generation from the internal option setup
• make netsync startup fast
• redo windows pipe support
• synchronization over dumb protocols (e.g. HTTP, SFTP)
• LogUI
• conflict handling
• .mtn-ignore cleanup -- globbing, move into C++ code (currently handled in lua)
• unified workspace scan caching
• make our ssh agent code work on windows (with putty's pageant)

botan/ajisai? What is there we need?

monoclipse (much more sketchy b/c someone who signs up to java/eclipse stuff cannot necessarily fall back on c++/monotone stuff)

guitone

Main page: http://guitone.thomaskeller.biz

• a dag graph view using libqanava, libtulip, graphviz or else
• a kpart module for the KDE Konqueror based on the existing framework
• a tortoisecvs/svn alike Windows Explorer add-in, again based on the existing framework
• a Win32 installer
• for Python enthusiasts: waf win32 native build support (see net.venge.monotone.guitone.waf branch)
