Yes, I want git too !
It shouldn't be hard to move to git, but we have to first make sure that
everyone knows how to use git (I haven't used it myself either) and
convert the current data to git so we retain the versioning history.
I can use the system at Hetzner for this, which is a KVM host with a few
guests. Later we can migrate it to somewhere else.
Guys, well, let me repeat myself. I guess RPMForge is near clinical death.
1. repo is running
2. so huge, without sqlite
3. some packages are broken, huge portion unused/outdated
4. no buglist
5. no web commit viewer
6. no wiki
7. no build access
8. problems with mirrors
9. "single point of person", sorry Dag :o)
10. commit access is fine, but without build trigger etc., totally
useless...
11. ...
As to me shout out let's move to git solves nothing. We need to bring up
solution which solves the points above. So let's use:
1. self-hosted trac environment
2. Google Code
3. http://gitorious.org
4. SourceForge
5. http://github.com/
6. ...
David, moving to git solves a very important point for me. An svn up takes
a few minutes. Other operations are fairly slow as well.
We didn't spend any time on reviving RPMforge basicly because rpmrepo was
going to surpasse it. I don't believe in that anymore, more people were
involved, little progress was made. I can't blame anyone because I didn't
contribute myself (although I did state I was not going to be able to help
a lot beyond what I was already doing).
Since Matthias, who owns the rpmforge.net domain doesn't want us to use it
and since I don't believe rpmrepo is going anywhere I needed a new domain
name, which I registered as repoforge.org (close enough to RPMforge, and
we can keep the rf tag) so we can finally have a proper name for the
repository location, for mirrors, and other infrastructure.
