Hi! My name is Evgeniy Ivanov and I was a GSoC student mentored by Alexander Dymo. I've developed DVCS support in KDevelop. It's a small preview of working things I've implemented this summer (some things need some love and I will give it).
This summer was amazing: our team includes very interesting, intelligent and kind people. I wasn't able to know all of them during one summer, but Alexander, Andreas, Amilcar, David, Vladimir, Manuel, all other guys impressed me very much. When I knew most of them have PhD I decided I want it too (but I have to study 3-3.5 years before getting Master degree :D). Before I start, the sweetest thing (currently only for Git and with few minor glitches): KDevelop has basic support for three most popular DVCSes now: Mercurial and Bazaar are less supported, but I need just few lines to make them more functional, so things below are based on generic code + special Git executors(proxy) which a few lines.
Branching and VCScommitDialog used powered by Git: Finally, whetting your appetite. Here is a screen of QGit integrated into KDevelop4. I hope in KDevelop4 we will have something like this (we have almost many things done) for all our DVCSes (Git, Mercurial, Bazaar) and Subversion. I want to thank all people helped me during this summer: Alexander Dymo(adymo, KDevelop) — My mentor who is strong both in GUI and Git. Andreas Pakulat(apaku, KDevelop) — The man who can help with any part of KDevelop(or maybe even ith whole KDE && Qt). Shawn O. Pearce (spearce, Git) — A man who is not in KDE, but who contacted my mentor and me to suggest his help. Marco Costalba — QGit author, explained a lot of code from QGit. Paul Mackerras — Gitk author, explained some basic algorithm (building rev history). All guys from different IRC channels, mailinglist. And of course Google for the amazing Open Source Program: Google summer of Code!
