Hi Philip, Hannes,

About Git migration : how are we deal with the revcheck tag ? Is there a
link between SVN revision ID and futur Git revision ID ? Is there a
script to automatically update translation to include the right Git
revision ID into the revcheck tag ?

Best,

I still don't see why we would need or even want to move phpdoc to Git. Git is very nice, if you have a lot of concurrent development running in various "branches" where you want to combine various versions of files together. In the case of phpdoc however, I think all that support is moot. Simply because we have an "old version" of documentation as it was, and every change added is the current, the best and the only up-to-date version. There is a very clear history of every file from before to now, which we even rely upon when checking if translated files are still up-to-date with the english version.

So please, could someone explain in plain english (or point me to an RFC that did so), why we should move phpdoc to git instead of keep it in SVN where it works more than fine (IMO).
