Comment (by rhertzog):
Thanks for the helpful answer!
wordpress is already more than 10Mb and I'm not sure including them would
make such a big difference but I can understand your concern and would
then suggest to still include them in the SVN but to add some way to build
two release tarballs: a light version and full version. As I said
providing the .dev.js in the source tarball is a requirement for Debian
and I would like a solution that doesn't involve me recreating a dedicated
source tarball for each release...
Now checking out the /download/source/ link, it lacks the pointer or the
file for the crop/cropper.js file. I tried to look up the
[http://www.defusion.org.uk/code/javascript-image-cropper-ui-using-
prototype-scriptaculous/ upstream website] and I was unable to find the
uncompressed file for the release embedded in Wordpress. It's a relatively
old version that Wordpress ships I think.
plupload is also not mentionned in that page but maybe this one is a new
library for 3.3.
jquery.schedule.js is less than 3kb, it could be included I guess.
The uncompressed copy of jquery is also not up-to-date, it's version 1.4.4
instead of 1.6.1 shipped in Wordpress 3.2.1.
Same for jquery-ui, it's 1.8.9 instead of 1.8.12 shipped in 3.2.1.
So while this webpage is useful, we don't have the historical versions
used for each release. This can be useful at times (and important to be
able to fulfill the obligation of the written offer that Wordpress makes
at the end of COPYING, cf http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/17472),
so managing all this in subversion would be more effective IMO.
