Make Open Easy
MOE is a system for synchronzing, translating, and scrubbing source code repositories. Often, a project needs to exist in two forms, but maintaining code in two repositories is burdensome. MOE allows users to:
- synchronize (in either or both directions) between two source code repositories
- use different types of repositories (svn, hg, git) in combinations
- maintain "scrubbed" content in an internal or private repository.
- transform project paths to support different layouts/structures in different repositories
- propagate or hide individual commits, commit-authorship, and other metadata between repositories whild syncing.
MOE was created around 2011, but has not had a lot of love. Google teams that maintain open-source releases (guava, dagger, auto, etc.) use it regularly, so we dusted it off to share fixes, improvements, and help folks who use it outside of Google.
The project is currently undergoing a fair bit of re-factoring and needs a documentation update, which is forthcoming.
- Install Apache Ant if you don't have it already.
- Checkout the Java-MOE source
git clone [email protected]:google/MOE.git
- In the top-level directory that contains the build.xml file, run:
-
ant jar
to compile the source and build the jar (outputs to build/jar/) -ant test
to compile the tests and run them -ant clean
to delete any generated files
Once you have the .jar, you can run: "java -jar path/to/java-moe.jar "
Alternatively, you can make the .jar executable and then run: "./java-moe.jar "
