Hello,
As previously discussed [1], we've been exploring consolidating the many
repositories in an OpenJDK Hg forest (jdk, langtools, hotspot, ...) into
a single repository for JDK 10. The initial prototype of a consolidated
repo [2], equivalent to JDK 9 build 138, was published in October 2016.
Erik Joelsson has been working on a refined version of the consolidation
repo and we plan to publish this second generation prototype in the near
future. The new prototype presents a more faithful view of the sources
between tags for promoted builds and provides a cleaner overall file layout.
The corresponding JEP [3] will be updated to reflect the details of the
new prototype in due course.
Cheers,
-Joe
