I didn't mean with my original email that we'd bypass that process - just that I'd like all commits to go through review here (apart from minor, mechanical fixes) Of course, if we get submissions from people without an ICLA, we will follow the proper Apache process. > If this sounds awkward or unworkable, perhaps others have a better > understanding of how git-svn works in practice. Sounds reasonable. As for git-svn, it's mostly a convenience for how people who are used to git will work locally. There's nothing keeping anybody from working with svn directly (though maintaining patches locally and posting them, for example, is quite a bit more awkward) David
