Merge CKEditor 5 subrepositories to the main repository

[mlewand]

Provide a description of the task

All the ckeditor5-xyz core repositories should be merged into the ckeditor/ckeditor5 repository.

It would be great if we were able to somehow keep the history, so at least blame is useful - but that's not a must-have.

Todos before the merge

• Ensure there are no severe performance drawbacks, when working with the repository.
• Recreate the monorepo branch with the latest changes in all packages.
  • Prepare a reproducible script to create such monorepo branch.

📃 Other details

This is a subtask of #6466.

[pomek]

After merging packages to the main repository, we need to clean up package.json in each package. Move the lint task from each package to the main repository. Be sure that URLs are correct.

[mlewand]

Added the monorepo-mock branch, that has the file layout that we should be looking for, we can use it for further testing.

However it's just a mock, made by adding carelessly adding files from all our CKE5 subpackages.

[mlewand]

I have successfully integrated all our subpackages, while preserving ckediotr/ckeditor5 hashes and porting packages commits into it.

monorepo branch creation

The execution of the script might be time-consuming, so be aware of that.

It is much easier to work on it by creating an empty repository.

To do that we'll reuse the mlewand/monorepo-tools#ckeditor5-migration script, a fork of shopsys/monorepo-tools (as it needs few adjustments).

1. Create ckeditor5-migration directory anywhere you'd like.

   mkdir ckeditor5-migration && cd ckeditor5-migration && git init
   

2. Hook up the ckeditor/ckeditor5 repository and merge its master branch

   git remote add main-repository https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5.git
   git fetch main-repository
   git merge main-repository/master
   git checkout -b monorepo
   

3. Set remotes for all the subpackages to be imported:

   git remote add package-ckeditor-cloud-services-core git@github.com:ckeditor/ckeditor-cloud-services-core.git
   git remote add package-ckeditor5-adapter-ckfinder git@github.com:ckeditor/ckeditor5-adapter-ckfinder.git

4. git fetch --all --no-tags

5. Clone the forked monorepo-tools.

   git clone https://github.com/mlewand/monorepo-tools.git ~/monorepo-tools -b ckeditor5-migration
   

6. Execute monorepo build command (will take some time to process):

   ~/monorepo-tools/monorepo_build.sh main-repository package-ckeditor-cloud-services-core:packages/ckeditor-cloud-services-core package-ckeditor5-adapter-ckfinder:packages/ckeditor5-adapter-ckfinder package-ckeditor5-alignment:packages/ckeditor5-alignment package-ckeditor5-autoformat:packages/ckeditor5-autoformat package-ckeditor5-autosave:packages/ckeditor5-autosave package-ckeditor5-basic-styles:packages/ckeditor5-basic-styles package-ckeditor5-block-quote:packages/ckeditor5-block-quote package-ckeditor5-build-balloon:packages/ckeditor5-build-balloon package-ckeditor5-build-balloon-block:packages/ckeditor5-build-balloon-block package-ckeditor5-build-classic:packages/ckeditor5-build-classic package-ckeditor5-build-decoupled-document:packages/ckeditor5-build-decoupled-document package-ckeditor5-build-inline:packages/ckeditor5-build-inline package-ckeditor5-ckfinder:packages/ckeditor5-ckfinder package-ckeditor5-clipboard:packages/ckeditor5-clipboard package-ckeditor5-cloud-services:packages/ckeditor5-cloud-services package-ckeditor5-code-block:packages/ckeditor5-code-block package-ckeditor5-core:packages/ckeditor5-core package-ckeditor5-easy-image:packages/ckeditor5-easy-image package-ckeditor5-editor-balloon:packages/ckeditor5-editor-balloon package-ckeditor5-editor-classic:packages/ckeditor5-editor-classic package-ckeditor5-editor-decoupled:packages/ckeditor5-editor-decoupled package-ckeditor5-editor-inline:packages/ckeditor5-editor-inline package-ckeditor5-engine:packages/ckeditor5-engine package-ckeditor5-enter:packages/ckeditor5-enter package-ckeditor5-essentials:packages/ckeditor5-essentials package-ckeditor5-font:packages/ckeditor5-font package-ckeditor5-heading:packages/ckeditor5-heading package-ckeditor5-highlight:packages/ckeditor5-highlight package-ckeditor5-horizontal-line:packages/ckeditor5-horizontal-line package-ckeditor5-image:packages/ckeditor5-image package-ckeditor5-indent:packages/ckeditor5-indent package-ckeditor5-link:packages/ckeditor5-link package-ckeditor5-list:packages/ckeditor5-list package-ckeditor5-markdown-gfm:packages/ckeditor5-markdown-gfm package-ckeditor5-media-embed:packages/ckeditor5-media-embed package-ckeditor5-mention:packages/ckeditor5-mention package-ckeditor5-page-break:packages/ckeditor5-page-break package-ckeditor5-paragraph:packages/ckeditor5-paragraph package-ckeditor5-paste-from-office:packages/ckeditor5-paste-from-office package-ckeditor5-remove-format:packages/ckeditor5-remove-format package-ckeditor5-restricted-editing:packages/ckeditor5-restricted-editing package-ckeditor5-select-all:packages/ckeditor5-select-all package-ckeditor5-special-characters:packages/ckeditor5-special-characters package-ckeditor5-table:packages/ckeditor5-table package-ckeditor5-theme-lark:packages/ckeditor5-theme-lark package-ckeditor5-typing:packages/ckeditor5-typing package-ckeditor5-ui:packages/ckeditor5-ui package-ckeditor5-undo:packages/ckeditor5-undo package-ckeditor5-upload:packages/ckeditor5-upload package-ckeditor5-utils:packages/ckeditor5-utils package-ckeditor5-watchdog:packages/ckeditor5-watchdog package-ckeditor5-widget:packages/ckeditor5-widget package-ckeditor5-word-count:packages/ckeditor5-word-count
   

Inspect the logs to see that history is preserved. Ensure that latest ckeditor/ckeditor5 commit is included in your monorepo branch (so that there's no need for force-push or any shenanigans like that).

This is it, your local monorepo branch contains all the packages merged.

Set remotes for all the subpackages to be imported:

Just to be sure it will execute correctly. Use a bash script for that.

[mlewand]

All the instructions are ready. What remains is to execute it as a part of #6534.
