I have some more. At Apache we are in the process of setting up official Git mirror of our SVN repository. It may sound like nothing really big but first step (even small) is important. We are already discussing how we could change our work-flow if we have more powerful tools in place. Personally, I would like to thank Git community for producing such great piece of software and supporting it here in very professional and vivid way. -- Best regards, Grzegorz Kossakowski ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2009-03-01 22:01 Subject: Re: Yesss! sourceforge.net and Git Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/alpine.DEB.1.00.0903012259390.10279%40pacific.mpi-cbg.de In-Reply-To: ``` Hi, On Sun, 1 Mar 2009, Sverre Rabbelier wrote: > On Sun, Mar 1, 2009 at 22:38, Johannes Schindelin > wrote: > >        http://apps.sourceforge.net/trac/sitedocs/wiki/Git > > About time!

True, that. But when it is we can? What with 1.6.2 soon-to-be-released and all? > Well, you work in the shop.  Lots of politics, my son, lots of politics. Yeah, it was mostly wishful thinking from my side. There's some work being done on git and hg interoperability though, so if worst comes to worst, I could live with using something like git-hg ;). -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier ``` ## Sverre Rabbelier, 2009-03-01 22:13 Subject: Re: Yesss! sourceforge.net and Git Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/fabb9a1e0903011413p3d9a45a0vb6291c11ff01613e%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: <94a0d4530903011410u67b20a38nc81d8b00b1c251f8@mail.gmail.com> ``` Heya, On Sun, Mar 1, 2009 at 23:10, Felipe Contreras wrote: > Well, git has become so freakingly popular that supporting any DVCS > that is not git would generate lots of complaints. Hehe, since when have big company's ever bothered with 'lots of complaints'? ;) I mean, they're offering a free service, they can always hide behind "if you don't like it, use something else". -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier ``` ## Miles Bader, 2009-03-02 07:50 Subject: Re: Yesss! sourceforge.net and Git Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/buoab84xt17.fsf%40dhlpc061.dev.necel.com In-Reply-To: ``` Sverre Rabbelier writes: >> Well, you work in the shop.  Lots of politics, my son, lots of politics. > > Yeah, it was mostly wishful thinking from my side.

Who knows, at the moment though, they only have svn and I'm personally not holding my breath for git support anytime soon. -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier ``` ## Felipe Contreras, 2009-03-02 08:06 Subject: Re: Yesss! sourceforge.net and Git Message-ID: <94a0d4530903020006y2e27c213m276693590e29de04@mail.gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/94a0d4530903020006y2e27c213m276693590e29de04%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Mon, Mar 2, 2009 at 9:50 AM, Miles Bader wrote: > Sverre Rabbelier writes: >>> Well, you work in the shop.  Lots of politics, my son, lots of politics. >> >> Yeah, it was mostly wishful thinking from my side.
