[GRASS-dev] [Fwd: Re: rename of imported branch]

[Hamish]

Hi,

imho-

AFAIR there are many git <-> svn tools you can use to have git
at your end without us needing to completely upend things at
our end. AFAIAC the current way is working fine and so I am
loathe to mess with it or risk splintering development efforts.

AFAIK Ubuntu(GIS) just pulls its packages from Debian(GIS),
where we use svn.debian.org to store the package scripts.
As there are just (mainly) two of us working on that, and
mostly just Frankie, it doesn't really call out for a wide-area-
VCS which is designed for large developer pools.


grass65 should not be packaged for distribution.
grass7 should not be packaged at this point in time.


svn diff works fine off-line. you can fix bugs, make diffs,
revert back to original version, etc. already.
and then send patches when you are back online.


2c,
Hamish
