Hello all, There are few changes today for FarCry Core that I want to let you know about.
*R.I.P. Subversion* The Subversion repository hosted by Atlassian is now offline. The GitHub repository https://github.com/farcrycore/core is now the official home of the FarCry Core codebase. *Tag branches have been replaced with git tags* With no more SVN synchronisation I was finally able to convert the tag branches in the git repository to lightweight git tags. While I tried to keep as much of the history intact, there were some old tags that might not have all the changes that were in Subversion. If you have already cloned core you can delete the now-obsolete tracking branches with the following command: git fetch origin --prune If there is interest I may do a separate post on how to maintain your FarCry Core checkouts when you want to stick to (or stick close to) milestones. If you are looking for a specific tag or commit from Subversion that is missing from the official core repo, I have saved the original tag branches in all their glorious mess in a fork: https://github.com/boomfish/farcry-core-legacy *Core mirrored on Bitbucket* We also have a full backup mirror of FarCry Core hosted at Bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/farcry/core The Bitbucket repository is synced hourly and integrated with the community JIRA so that commits and tickets can link to each other. This latter feature is mostly intended for users who wish to trace legacy bug reports to fixes. We're considering our options for issue tracking going forward: we may continue to use JIRA, or we may switch to GitHub's issue tracker. We'll make an announcement once we've made a decision, but for now if there's an issue you want addressed you may want to report it on this list rather than file a ticket. *Contributing via pull requests* If you are a code contributor who used to have SVN commit access but we haven't given you commit access to the GitHub repository, you can still contribute by making your changes in your own fork then issuing us a pull request. If you are thinking of issuing a pull request please let us know beforehand so we can brief you on our process. Questions about anything I've said here? Just ask.
