Dropping an update here: INFRA-27874 got been updated that the mirror
exists now. The site sources are now available at
https://github.com/apache/tomcat-site. The default branch is wrong, but
I'll fix that. Otherwise it looks OK to me. To Chris' point from last time,
I'm not sure how if we need to update any tooling to pull from git, or if
we just expect that github mirror into svn and don't update anything? I can
ask on the INFRA ticket if we're not sure but I suspect Mark knows :)
Infra would need to:
- disable the svn -> git mirror
- switch the website source from svn to git
- make the git repo writeable
We should check that all is well with the mirror and then request the
above changes.

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.
We can alter the tooling to pull from git. I've forgotten what uses svn
directly or not; the tools/update-version.sh script does use svn but it
should be easy to change to git instead.
