Consequently, in the near-ish future, we'll be moving at least some aspects of the EGit project onto eclipse.org. This is a first step towards making the EGit team provider available as part of the base platform downloads, like the CVS team provider is today. We're still trying to sort out everything, because eclipse.org only offers CVS and SVN code repositories... and we have a 1,601 commit history in Git that we'd like to preserve. But we're starting to move. Thanks to Robin for doing the bulk of the initial drafts on the project proposal, without his effort we wouldn't have gotten this far.

Ah, that's easy. svn add .git That way it is formally tracked in SVN :D > Thanks to Robin for doing the bulk of the initial drafts on the > project proposal, without his effort we wouldn't have gotten > this far. Philippe Ombredanne helped out a lot -- robin ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2009-05-05 22:57 Subject: Re: EGit is moving to eclipse.org Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/alpine.DEB.1.00.0905060055420.18521%40pacific.mpi-cbg.de In-Reply-To: <200905060005.33721.robin.rosenberg.lists@dewire.com> ``` Hi, On Wed, 6 May 2009, Robin Rosenberg wrote: > tisdag 05 maj 2009 20:21:12 skrev "Shawn O.

And yes, Philippe seemed to be _very_ interested in Git (already at the GSoC summit 2007). Another good demonstration how good a thing it is when enthusiastic people from different Open Source projects meet in person.
