[wix-devs] Burn micro repo(s)

[Rob Mensching]

Some thoughts (if they are incoherent, I blame my current fevered state):

1. deputil should be tossed in with dutil. It isn't big enough to live on its own. I thought I did that already but did not.

2. If we break it out, I think:
  a. Burn Interfaces - wix4/src/burn/inc/* + wix4/src/ext/BalExtension/core (and maybe work to reduce MBA core to just some interfaces)
  b. Burn engine - /engine, /stub, /samples
  c. balutil
  d. BalExtension - obviously, minus /core

Given the change patterns of the code, I think that would work out really well (once the repos are created <smile/>).

Subject: [wix-devs] Burn micro repo(s)

I think these are the Burn related folders that we still need to move into micro repos:

wix4/src/burn
wix4/src/ext/BalExtension
wix4/src/libs/balutil
wix4/src/libs/deputil

The easiest way would be to just throw them all into one repo. Otherwise, we'll have to start looking at all the different parts. Here's what I think are all the pieces:

wix4/src/burn
    burn engine (/engine - engine.lib plus headers)
    BA interface headers (/inc - BootstrapperEngine.h and
BootstrapperApplication.h)
    burn stub (/stub - burn.exe)
    samples (/samples)
wix4/src/ext/BalExtension
    actual extension (/wixext, /wixlib, /wixlib_arm)
    MBA host (/mba/host - mbahost.dll)
    MBA core (/mba/core - BootstrapperCore.dll)
    WixStandardBA (/wixstdba - wixstdba.dll)
    sample BA Functions (/samples)
wix4/src/libs/balutil
    base native BA, BA utility methods (balutil.lib)
    BA Functions interface header (/inc - BAFunctions.h) wix4/src/libs/deputil
    deputil.lib

If we're going to split it up, I guess it would be one repo for the BA interface headers, one repo for the Burn engine and stub and samples (and deputil?), and one repo for the rest.
