I'm pleased to announce that the Mixxx project now has its own official github repository.
https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/ Right now this will be a secondary, "read-only" repository that will be kept in sync with Launchpad on a roughly hourly basis. After a testing period and sometime after the release of 1.11 we will work to make github the primary source repository for Mixxx. At that point I'll swap the sync process so that launchpad will be a read-only mirror of the github repository. The conversion process was nearly lossless. Commits, branch merges, and tags all came through automatically. In cases where contributors already have a github account, their contributions will show up right away. Others will have to do the following to associate their accounts with Mixxx on github: * Create a github account. * Add your mixxx email address to github Settings / Emails. * Contact support using the link from this page to have them match up your commits: https://help.github.com/articles/why-are-my-contributions-not-showing-up-on-my-profile Then your contributions should show up in your github user page and on the Mixxx Graphs page. What does this mean for patches I am working on? If you're working in bzr, keep working in bzr for now. But if you prefer git or if you'd like to try it out, feel free to use it. If you submit a pull request the merge will have to be made manually by me to prevent conflicts with commits being made in launchpad. What does this mean for Launchpad? At this time, we plan to keep using launchpad for bugs, wiki, and other organizational uses. This may change if github's issue tracker improves. The goal right now is to get off bzr and on to git, which should allow casual developers to make contributions more easily. What if I want to move my own branch over to github? We used https://github.com/termie/git-bzr-ng to migrate the repository. It's really easy and robust, so you should feel free to give it a try on your own github account. It only takes a few minutes on a fast computer to import a new branch from launchpad. cheers, Owen Williams ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
