Greetings,

Was this an issue when moving from CVS to SVN?

If you want to host via GIT, then add GIT to your hosts.
If you abrasive to learn GIT then do it now. no more excuses.
Time to move along. It like the the move from Linux 2.2 to 2.4 or
2.4 to 2.6.
https://git.wiki.kernel.org/images-git/7/78/Git-svn-cheatsheet.pdf

Ya all use the same kernel which is GIT maintained yet ya don't want
to use GIT. Still no reason to use SVN.

Bruce isn't the authority on this. This isn't the first time it has been
brought up. Clearly there is a concern to use GIT for LFS projects.

Sincerely,

William Harrington

I have mixed feelings about this move. On one hand, I do not like "putting all the eggs in the same basket", as we say in French. In this case, all open source software in the hands of one company. On the other hand, github offers many services that are hard to offer on a server administrated by only one person. I could set up hosting a git repo on higgs, provided Bruce give me enough privs, but what about PR, reviews, and the like ? Also, people proposing their help on the project are enthusiastic about this move. So let's go github...

As of making the other linuxfromscratch repos git, whether on higgs or github, this is another story. I'd vote for, but I can live with svn...
