Has it been decided where the master repository would be hosted? The current code seems to handle at least github just fine if you just replace the base URL in cbook.py: - baseurl = 'http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/sample_data/' + baseurl = 'http://github.com/jkseppan/mpl-sample-data/raw/master/' (I just created that repository for testing purposes, and made a small change to a file when testing, so it shouldn't become the final repository.) The code is really not specific to any version control system, but just assumes that the files can be retrieved from an HTTP server that has some basic conditional-get support. -- Jouni K.
