Is the git repo up in github? I can't see it under
https://github.com/leo-editor
Is it open to public?
It's just for testing at the moment. Any changes pushed to the repo
will be blown away when the final migration happens. It's also already
several revisions behind with no viable way of catching up...
In short, don't bother, yet :)

Thanks

"Eric S. Raymond, co-founder of the Open Source Initiative, has
recommended that Emacs should move to another version control
system
like GitHub, as bzr is dying. In an email, Raymond highlighted
the key
reasons why he believes that Emacs should move. Raymond said
that bzr
is moribund; its dev list has flatlined; and most of Canonical's
in-house projects have already abandoned bzr and moved to
GitHub. ESR
believes that bzr's codebase is sufficiently mature to be used as a
production tool, but he does mention that continuing to use the
revision control system will have 'social and signaling effects
damaging to Emacs's prospects.'"
I think the last sentence, "... will have 'social and signaling
effects
damaging to Emacs's prospects.'" is the crux, bzr is more than enough
DVCS for Leo, the only drawback is "Ohh, you're not using git...".
Longer term bzr may atrophy, I guess, although I imagine it will be
usable for many years to come.
Matt and Jacob - it seemed that between you you'd kind of done
most of
the leg-work for getting Leo's VCS history in one place and moving it
to git - I'm not saying we should move right now, but just wondering
how high the barrier is, not very, perhaps?
Cheers -Terry
