| = History |
| |
| The Apache ActiveMQ Artemis project was started in October 2014. |
| The Artemis code base was seeded with a code donation granted by Red Hat, of the HornetQ project. |
| The code donation process consisted of taking a snapshot of the latest HornetQ code base and contributing this snapshot as an https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-1[initial git commit] into the Artemis git repository. |
| |
| The HornetQ commit history is preserved and can be accessed here: https://github.com/hornetq/hornetq/tree/apache-donation |
| |
| Credit should be given to those developers who contributed to the HornetQ project. |
| The top 10 committers are highlighted here: |
| |
| * Clebert Suconic |
| * Tim Fox |
| * Francisco Borges |
| * Andy Taylor |
| * Jeff Mesnil |
| * Ovidiu Feodorov |

| == Rebasing original donation |
| |
| It may be useful to look at the donation history combined with the artemis history. |
| It is the case when eventually looking at old changes. |
| |
| For that there is a script that will rebase main against the donation branch under main/scripts: |
| |
| * `rebase-donation.sh` |
