Procedure

  1. Make a dated tag & legacy branch in epics-modules/motor
  2. Make the changes to motor to allow submodules to be added to it
  3. Follow the detailed procedure to create a motorVendor module
  4. Push the motorVendor module to epics-motor/motorVendor
  5. Add the motorVendor repo to epics-modules/motor as a submodule
  6. Remove motorVendor files from epics-modules/motor
  7. Repeat steps 3-6 for each vendor directory in motor/motorApp
  8. Create 1.0 release of each driver module
  9. Create 7.0 release of motor, containing 1.0 release of each driver module
  10. [Optional] Move motor from epics-modules to epics-motor
