Greetings,
I am pretty sure we are keeping two parallel repos for ABCL, one in subversion and the other in GIT. I thought two things:
1. They were kept in sync 2. The subversion repo was preferred
There is no preferred repository: a sizable number of contributions have come in through the github.com interfaces. The Subversion trunk provides the linear view of the Git DAG.
I recently compared the two repos and discovered that:
1. They are not in sync 2. The GIT repo has the latest changes
They should be in sync: you will need to provide specific references if you find this not to be the case. If they aren’t in sync, I will bring them in sync.
Personally, I prefer subversion. However, I feel strongly that we should drop one of the repos so that this out-of-sync situation no longer arises.
We will be maintaining the current three repository (two Git, one Subversion) bridge by my idiosyncratic Mercurial bridge as long as I am doing the release engineering. -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before but there is nothing to compare to it now."
