Sam Ruby commented on WHIMSY-117:
---------------------------------

Issues to be resolved:

1) Unit of granularity for a svn checkout can be as little as a single file.  
Unit of granularity for git is an entire repository (depth of 1 can be used to 
eliminate history).  The way whimsy does updates is to checkout a new copy into 
a temporary directory, make the change, and then commit the result.  Moving 
from a file to a repository will slow things down.

2) how to address two factor authentication.  This may be possible to be 
avoided by pushing to the ASF copy of the repository.

> Migrate podlings.xml maintainence to git

> the areas of the code that update podlings should begin to look at how to 
> manipulate podlings.xml in git rather than SVN.
