In the longer term, my understanding is that the Infrastructure team is working on ways of using Git that are compatible with ASF's IP history requirements. They are running a small experiment with a couple of projects. I will continue to monitor board@ in the hope of adding Git read/write

There are several key reasons for moving to git, and a read-only repository would not support most of them: * Git makes it significantly easier to branch and merge when compared to SVN, CVS, etc. * Git pull requests encapsulate an opportunity for feedback on branches and easy diffs between
