[RFC] remove OCA_PROJECTS dictionary

[sbidoul]

Soon, the reference data for which PSC is in charge of which repo will be in the odoo-community.org database.

I therefore propose to drop the hard coded dictionary in tools/oca_projects.py.

Well, it's still used in some tools in OCA/maintainer-tools, and connecting to OCA instance is not something feasible.

@pedrobaeza which tools are you referring to? I see only check_contrib which is old and most probably never unused. It's also easy to adapt.

I've personally never been in a situation where using this list without being connected to GitHub was really necessary.

I want to progressively simplify the repo creation process, and this is one of the steps that we could remove.

Last PR for publishing modules is based on it for example: #409

But OCA bot also uses it:

maintainer-tools/tools/main_branch_bot.py

Line 55 in 92383c9

for repo, branch in get_repositories_and_branches(repos, branches):

[sbidoul]

That is fine. I don't want to kill oca_project.py, I want to kill the hard-coded OCA_PROEJCTS constant in it.

[pedrobaeza]

OK, then I think we can strip it.
