Hello,
I changed the subject line for this thread, since I didn't want to
hijack another thread. Anyway, I am not proposing that we actually
decide whether to move to git and github now, but I am just curious
how people would feel. We had a conversation about this a few years
ago and it was quite contentious at the time. Since then, I believe a
number of us have started using git and github for most of our work.
And there are a number of developers using git-svn to develop numpy
now. So I was curious to get a feeling for what people would think
about it, if we moved to git. (I don't want to rehash the arguments
for the move.)
I think we are ready for such a move. Someone should think about the implications, though (with Trac integration, check-in mailings, etc.) and make sure we get something we all like. Somebody probably has thought through all of these things already, though.
