Use cases
About
The Git Migration Goals mind map template provides a structured framework for planning and executing a migration from a legacy version control system to Git. With 134 nodes across 7 major branches, it covers Source Control Change, Dependency Management Restructuring, Build Server Restructuring, Packaging Changes, Testing, Documentation, and Git Migration Phases. Key nodes include 'Define Policies' under Source Control Change, 'Automation Language' specifying Powershell and Python, and 'Rollout' detailing projects like 'OLTPDatabase'. This template serves as a comprehensive checklist and roadmap for engineering teams, ensuring no critical step is overlooked during the migration process.

Frequently asked questions
The template includes 134 nodes covering source control change, dependency management, build server restructuring, packaging changes, testing, documentation, and phased migration steps.
Open the .xmind file in Xmind, then follow the branches: start with Source Control Change policies, then work through dependency, build, packaging, testing, documentation, and phases.
Yes, the template is fully editable in Xmind. You can add, remove, or modify nodes to match your specific migration scope and tools.
The phases are Preparation (with parallel Blue/Green systems), Customization (iterative runs), Rollout (non-NaviNet and NaviNet projects), and Analysis (categorization of difficulty).
Yes, the template explicitly addresses 'No Accurev crosslinks' and includes steps for rewriting existing tools and build scripts.
The template suggests Powershell (known) and Python (learning curve) for automation, as noted in the 'Automation Language' node.
