WHAT: Create a git mirror of SVN (just like we have for Mercurial), host it on github.com (vs. hosting it on www.open-mpi.org)
WHY: LANL and Mellanox both asked for git mirrors WHEN: Already done WHERE: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi-svn-mirror ------ LANL and Mellanox prefer git to Mercurial, so they asked me to setup a git mirror for SVN (similar to what we have for Mercurial: http://www.open-mpi.org/svn/mercurial.php). No problem; I did it. I was trying to setup gitweb on www.open-mpi.org and running into a few problems (I'm not super-familiar with the intricacies of git), and I had an epiphany: why not put the OMPI SVN git mirror on github.com? There doesn't seem to be much of a reason to host the git repo on www.open-mpi.org, and github.com has lots of services that git people tend to like. So I did it. What do people think? 1. Having a git mirror at all (I think this is a no-brainer, since some of our active developers want it) 2.
