Re: [Jmol-developers] SVN access problem
I support this idea in principle; I just started using Git on another project (Jalview), and I certainly see the advantages. No system is immune to failure, but it is true that the local repository aspect of Git does mean there cannot be a catastrophic failure that impacts us for weeks the way we just had with SF. (I think that is up; I just made a test commit.) I have had problems with line endings, and I have had a lot of problems with overriding changes when that is necessary. We would need to make sure everyone moves to Eclipse 4.5. I'm reticent to do that just now myself, because it's a path of no return, or at least one would have to re-check out projects all over again (and I have quite a few of those at this point). We would have to do this very carefully. Bob On Tue, Jul 28, 2015 at 5:00 PM, Andreas Prlic andr...@sdsc.edu wrote: I'd strongly support a move to github. It is so much better in so many ways...

Yeah, SourceForge is still partly down. Apparently git and hg are back again but not subversion, see https://twitter.com/sfnet_ops/status/624329180029677568 This is rather disconcerting on a more general level, e.g. the CP2K project is currently moving their subversion repository elsewhere.
