Andy Jefferson commented on JDO-770:
------------------------------------
The sooner this can be done the better for all. I just tried to get current
code using (from the website)
{{svn checkout [http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/jdo]}}
and was met with
{{svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL
'http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/jdo'}}
{{svn: E120108: Error running context: The server unexpectedly closed the
connection.}}
Nice, so much for that idea.
> Switch from svn to git
> ----------------------
>
> Key: JDO-770
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-770
> Project: JDO
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: site and infrastructure
> Affects Versions: JDO 3.1
> Reporter: Michael Bouschen
> Assignee: Craig L Russell
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: JDO 3.2
>
>
> We should consider switching from svn to git. The reason to make jdo
> available via git is to remove a possible barrier to new contributors.
> There are several alternatives if we decide to offer git as an alternative to
> svn:
> * migrating all the code to git
> * creating a read-only git mirror
> * creating a read-write bridge.
> See [Git at Apache | https://git.apache.org/] for more details.
