The long dormant MediaWiki GitHub mirror is now running again. It's
now lagging 10 minutes behind the MediaWiki repository at most:
http://github.com/mediawiki/mediawiki-svn
The mirror contains all MediaWiki branches and tags. It's currently
360MB, with a full checkout being another 320MB.
Once I figure out how to reconstruct the SVN metadata from a checkout
(http://github.com/mediawiki/mediawiki-svn/issues#issue/1) you'll be
able to follow these instructions:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Subversion#Using_the_GitHub_mirror
And do:
1. Check out MediaWiki from Git
2. Hack a bunch
3. Push back to Subversion
I'm also planning on having other repositories for selected subsets of
the MediaWiki SVN. Similar to what I've already set up for the
OpenStreetMap SVN repository:
http://github.com/openstreetmap
That is, you'll be able to clone just trunk/phase3 or trunk/extensions
via Git without getting all the other stuff you don't care about.
Here are the scripts that sync the mirror, for the curious:
