Hi, There's a lot of reasons to try to keep this in our own control - especially when it's possible because you have an infrastructure in place. Quality of services is one, and keeping control over your own future and projects another. 10 years ago people also asked me why not to host it on

@Ton, I think you misunderstood, GitLab is open-source (MIT) and can run self hosted. (I've never used it but it looks like its an alternative to phabricator, gitorious... etc). On Thu, Oct 17, 2013 at 11:30 PM, Ton Roosendaal t...@blender.org wrote: Hi, There's a lot of reasons to try to keep

Hi all, I had a meeting here with Sergey and Brecht and they proposed to allocate 2-3 weeks for them to do the svn-git migration and install a new tracker and review system on our projects site. Such a migration of course would keep all code and tracker history. Projects site functionality

Cheers! Sounds like you're looking at private GIT hosting? Any reason to not simply use something like Github or Bitbucket? They include the full tracker and make user management very easy. On Tuesday, October 15, 2013, Luke Frisken wrote: Will the branches be moved to git too? Luke On

No, we don't look into hosting ;) We're setting up own git server in blender.org data center facilities and we will manage it. And for tracking/codereview we'll be using phabricator, which is much better comparing to hat other hosters could provide. More detailed information about what and when

Yes, but you have to accept and live with the CGU… Some are not that open, and they may change at any time! In a word, that would be dropping our freedom level. Those services are nice for individual/small orgs that cannot afford own servers, but if you can, always better to do it yourself. ;)

Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by private git hosting, but we intend to host the git repository ourselves, same as we do for svn now. We generally want to host our own code and trackers, and not depend on other companies for this. On the practical side, Github has the advantage that it is easier

It's also easy to use your own clone on github/gitorious/etc. for independent coders who want their own code (or parts of it) separate from blender.org. Having an official git master of Blender will make it a lot easier to share commits between such independent branches, since you get the same
