SourceForge is starting a forced-upgrade of everyone's project to their new forge release. Part of this process includes breaking existing git repository paths.
Since they're going to have to change anyways, we're taking the opportunity to move our "official" git repositories to github, which will not only provide nice fast servers to pull from, but also the opportunity to streamline patch submission by using their pull request infrastructure. Here's what you need to do: - Create a Github account, if you don't have one already: http://github.com/ - If you are an OGP member and/or have commit access, email me your account and I'll add you as a committer on the OpenNMS repositories. You can reach the OpenNMS github repositories at: http://github.com/OpenNMS They are already active and sync'd regularly with the SourceForge ones, they're just not being officially used for builds/etc. On Saturday, I will do the following: 1. Set all the SourceForge git repositories to be read-only. 2. Make sure one last sync happens to github. 3. Update all documentation to point to the github URLs. You do not have to re-check-out any existing git repositories, you should just need to change the origin remote of your repository. You can list the remotes in your current git repository, by running "git remote -v show" and you should get something like this: > origin > git+ssh://rangerr...@opennms.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/opennms/opennms > (fetch) > origin > git+ssh://rangerr...@opennms.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/opennms/opennms > (push) To switch to the github remote you can use "git remote set-url". If you have write access, use: git remote set-url origin g...@github.com:OpenNMS/opennms.git ...and if you are a read-only user, use: git remote set-url origin git://github.com/OpenNMS/opennms.git Alternatively, you can "fork" the opennms project on github, and change your remote to your own forked opennms tree, which you can read or write to as you wish. You would then submit pull-requests back to the opennms github project to get merged into the official release. If you have any questions or comments, or suggestions, please let me know. -- Benjamin Reed The OpenNMS Group http://www.opennms.org/
