There was nothing "read-only" about my local copy. The understanding at the time was that write enableing of the the remote copy (branch?) would be a matter of hours, subject only to a check by the PMC. Before starting work, I did check the Falcon git repo, and it looked good. It thing it was not unreasonable for me to expect the 'write' switch to be throw with the same expediency with which INFRA moved at the start of this episode. On the point of the "do over": I don't recall asking for such a thing. I understand no that the confusion might have come from the [DISCUSS] thread I started - note: this was AFTER INFRA took their unilateral action by removing the git repos and re-enabling SVN - was about postponing the migration until INFRA had taken their 'git' support out of beta and was ready to fully support it, presumably months if not years in the future. That thread is not VOTE or LAZY but DISCUSS. I specifically chose that subject so no action would be taken until a discussion had taken place. > Theoretically, that would work.

Well, "up to me" is not really the case, as I explained, but I understand it's "out of your hands." I'll make a full backup of the actual source files, just to make sure no code is lost when trying to manage the move to git. Now, before this gets out of hand, let me re-iterate: by now - by way of a healthy serving of tutorials and some needed distraction on /r/aww - I nearly understand the basics of git. I accept the project is moving to git, unless a new consensus on the DISCUSS thread leads to a new VOTE :-) I am doing my best to have my code ready for the migration and by sharing my experiences and frustrations with the list I try to smooth the way for others. TL;DR: confusion all over the place, but really there's nothing to see here, we're moving forward to a 'git' future.
