Andy Jefferson commented on JDO-770: ------------------------------------ The sooner this can be done the better for all. I just tried to get current code using (from the website) {{svn checkout [http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/jdo]}} and was met with {{svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/jdo'}} {{svn: E120108: Error running context: The server unexpectedly closed the connection.}} Nice, so much for that idea. > Switch from svn to git > ---------------------- > > Key: JDO-770 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-770 > Project: JDO > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: site and infrastructure > Affects Versions: JDO 3.1 > Reporter: Michael Bouschen > Assignee: Craig L Russell > Priority: Major > Fix For: JDO 3.2 > > > We should consider switching from svn to git. The reason to make jdo > available via git is to remove a possible barrier to new contributors. > There are several alternatives if we decide to offer git as an alternative to > svn: > * migrating all the code to git > * creating a read-only git mirror > * creating a read-write bridge. > See [Git at Apache | https://git.apache.org/] for more details. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
