This does result in a few awkward cases but in general it's worth
enforcing and most importantly will make my life as a code reviewer
easier.
It's mostly deletion of dead code.
First I imported the commits from v3.6.6 with:
PKG=devices
git init $PKG
cd $PKG
git remote add origin https://github.com/google/periph
git fetch origin
git filter-repo \
--path AUTHORS \
--path CONTRIBUTING.md \
--path CONTRIBUTORS \
--path LICENSE \
--path README.md \
--path $PKG --path experimental/$PKG $@
git remote add origin git@github.com:periph/$PKG
git fetch origin
# Use the occasion to rename from master to main since we are starting from
# scratch.
git branch -m main
git push origin main
Then I fixed the layout to get rid of experimental with:
git rm experimental/devices/README.md
git mv experimental/devices/* .
git mv devices/* .
The import paths will be fixed in a follow up.
