Hi,
I was looking at changes for the tomcat.apache.org site to follow up on the
in-progress SECURITY.md addition and realized that I haven't setup svn on
my new laptop yet. Lots of other projects have ${project}-site repos in
git; should we move our site to git too? I don't see any historical
discussions about it on the dev-list. As a nice side effect, moving to git
should make it easier to get website update contributions from new
contributors, like the folks Dimitris and I talked to at FOSDEM earlier
this year.
I think this will require infrastructure work, which I'm happy to take that
on if there are no objections and someone can point me in the right
direction.
The folders for the site and the release repos are both copied from
there, so I don't think it is so easy (or useful) to move them. Mark
has more insights on the infra of course, so who knows.
I don't see a problem with svn personally ;)
I'm happy with either git or svn.
Infra-wise I believe it is a fairly simple change to tell the TLP server
to pull the site pages from git rather than svn.
The relevant infra pages are returning a 404 at the moment.
I'd suggest an INFRA ticket as a starting point. I assume we'd keep the
same build process so once the content is transferred it should just a
case of getting the right sub-directory of the right branch published at
tomcat.a.o
