Rename to nts #597
Rename to nts #597
Conversation
This is in concert with ostreedev/ostree#659. We can now talk coherently about `nts` when that's what we mean, rather than just the base libostree. I've heard many people talk about "ostree layering", but no such thing exists 😃. Also, `nts` is just shorter to say, and type, etc. It's a net-new brand, but I think that's OK. Obviously, there's a lot more changes we could do here, but I don't want to create conflicts, just start the ball rolling.

"nts"? what's that stand for? Why not "rost"? My worry would be that "nts" is close enough to "ntp" that folks might get confused about it. Regardless, if we're going to rename the utilities (including ostree) then we'll need a transition period with a symlink to the old names. |

Longer comment on #397, since that's where discussion is. In short: -1 from me. |

Wrong comment link? We should probably keep this in #405 |

@cgwalters sorry, meant #405. |

@cgwalters Thanks for submitting this PR, but it's way outdated now...IMO not worth keeping around on our PR list. If we were to do something here it'd likely end up being quite different anyways. |
