New name TBD.

  • Replace all instances of "GVFS" and "VFSForGit" (and variants) in the filenames using an exact-rename commit.
  • Drop the base "GVFS" folder in the same commit.
  • Perform text-based replacement of "GVFS", "VFSForGit", and variants in most places (some things need to stay, such as the Git package name).

Merge pull request #38: Rename to "Scalar"
dcf3e06 
Resolves #22.

Our new name is "Scalar". This replaces as many instances of the old GVFS, gvfs, VFS for Git, VFSFORGIT, vfsforgit, etc. with "Scalar", "scalar", or "SCALAR" as appropriate.

The commits are organized as follows:

1. `[RENAME] Rename all files`. This is a mechanical `find` and `mv` operation, done by a script. No blobs are changed, so `--follow-renames` should get exact values here, unless there are _exact_ duplicate files in the repo. This also flattens the repo, so the old "GVFS/GVFS.*" pattern is now just "Scalar.*".

2. `[REPLACE] Replace old name in all files`. This is an attempt to automatically replace all the name strings in the contents of the files. Skips some binary file types.

The remaining commits attempt to group the reaction work required to respond to those changes.

Merge pull request #94: Replace GVFS with Scalar in ReadObjectHook
7e0731d 
More fallout from #22. The script to replace GVFS with Scalar didn't catch the `.rc` file, so it had trouble on these version strings. I found this is affecting how the read object hook appears in Task Manager.
