I wonder how close the "piper" system is to the code.google.com project.
- a1k0n 11y agoIIRC, Piper is a reimplementation of the perforce backend, in order to handle the code size and the sheer number of "changelists" submitted per second. Nothing to do with code.google.com.
- spectral321 11y agoThey are unrelated. :)
- DannyBee 11y agoI worked on code.google.com, i can tell you the are 100% unrelated. piper grew out of a need to scale the source control system the initial internal repositories were using code.google.com was a completely separate thing supporting completely different version control models, and a very different scale (very large number of small repositories, vs very small number of very large repositories)
