Congrats team, I am also interested to have code on Git. Best regards, Mazi

However I do think Github itself would provide some nice features to this project in one convenient place, in particular the ability create issues and review code (via pull requests). Also, this last point is not particularly relevant but a lot of other active python projects are now hosted on Github, including numpy/scipy and matplotlib. I do think having OCW on their too might provide us some nice exposure, though this is just conjecture on my part. So yeah, slightly tl;dr but this definitely has my +1. Oh, and congrats on graduation.

That being said: the Git writeable repo at the ASF is its home. At the same time we can mirror at Github, and also issue pull requests against those mirrors, and then merge back into the ASF writeable Git home for Climate at that point. So it supports that workflow and even the UI and all convo and bits end up on the list here at the ASF, enabling our foundation to be able to meet its goals as well. Cheers, Chris P.S. note these Git services must be explicitly requested from infra@ should a JIRA issue be filed should this discussion result in consensus to move to Git. -----Original Message----- From: Cameron Goodale <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Reply-To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Thursday, February 20, 2014 12:38 PM To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: Thoughts on moving to Git +1 from me on moving to Git. Just one question: Does this also mean we can work from Github to handle pull requests and such? I have seen threads about GH mirrors becoming stale and not being able to use a lot of the GH features. Congrats to the entire DEV team on graduation. -Cam On Thu, Feb 20, 2014 at 11:47 AM, Mattmann, Chris A (3980) < [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: +1 to Git.

Second, since we have to move over our infrastructure now seems like a good time to discuss moving to git instead of SVN. I'm all for moving over to git (which probably doesn't surprise anyone).
