HoverGallery
Hi QChris, thanks for creating the repo SectionDisqus. About the impossibility to rename Hovergallery, wouldn't it be possible to just delete it and create a new one? I have only done one or two commits, so really no git history would be lost. Thanks. --LFS (talk) 08:44, 19 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi, we could delete Hovergallery and create HoverGallery. However, this would cause lots of side effects. Gerrit's watchers of Hovergallery will not get alerted for changes on HoverGallery. History of changes gets lost. It seems TranslateWiki has already been set up for Hovergallery; how does that cope with renaming? We cannot update users' wikis (that enabled Hovergallery) to use HoverGallery instead of Hovergallery. ... So deleting the old one and creating a new one is disruptive. As written on the repo request page, file a bug about it. But ^demon is the authority here. So I guess it's better to ask him directly. QChris (talk) 10:14, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
