Just wondering, regarding migration to git, would it be helpful to use AddOns (and possibly sandbox) as a test case?<br>

One command, all history preserved. What would be a Git equivalent of this?<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><div> but first probably we have to choose which git platform to use.

If somebody would be willing to summarize it, it may help us to get started.
