I think the git repo needs to be subversion aware in order to commit it to a subversion repo.

Is anyone familiar with the git-svn tool? http://maymay.net/blog/2009/02/24/how-to-use-git-svn-as-the-only-subversion-client-youll-need/

It looks like you might be able to use this to provide a “SVN mirror” of the GIT repo. But I’m not sure if it’s something that would be run by Moxiecode to update a central SVN repo from which we could synchronize, or if it’s something that I would run locally to synchronize my SVN working copy with the TinyMCE GIT repo.

We are still using SourceForge for downloads and issue tracking. But we will most likely move the issue tracker to our own servers, downloads might remain there since they have a pretty good cdn.

So are you still using SourceForge as your bug/issue tracker? Or are you trying to move away from SF completely?

The SVN branch is no longer updated. We push all changes to git now we will setup a nightly build system soon but we need to restructure the server farm a bit before that so it might take a few weeks.

Then there will be an alternative for those who for some odd reason can’t checkout the git repository.

So does this mean that the SVN branch is officially done and will no longer be updated, or is the completed 3.3 going to be the final branch released?

Just for those of us working with 3.3b1.

@Nate: Git and GitHub hasn’t really spread to the PHP and .NET developers yet. But I think this will be a snowball effect once enough projects switch over to Git.

I remember that it took a while before everyone switched over from CVS to SVN too so it’s seems that history is repeating it’s self.

I’m really surprised at the comments above criticizing the move to github. I, for one, am ecstatic about the move. TinyMCE is a great product and the move to github is only going to make it that much easier for the community to contribute and make it that much better.

Thanks for moving to github, I can guarantee we’ll see a spike in contributions to this project.
