Huge +1 from me. I've moved all of my PEAR projects to GitHub. Git+GitHub make managing FOSS projects SO much easier. No more manual patch submissions: just fork mine, commit, and I'll merge. So easy. If we do happen to go this route we might want to consider mandating a central PEAR account has access to repositories there? (I did this with my Google Code projects before moving to GitHub). Finally, I know Chris and the guys at GitHub well enough to be a liaison if needed. Love, love, love this idea. Love. <3 and such. --Joe On Jun 23, 2009, at 9:02 AM, Travis Swicegood wrote:

Funny you should mention Git. For those of you following the SVN migration for php-src, you'll have seen Rasmus' idea of moving php-src to GitHub. We're working on setting up a playground on GitHub to experiment. There's a ton of pluses going this route. Some are Git specific, some are specific to GitHub: * Fully distributed - now people can commit at conferences when wifi is down! -- I'm looking at you David Coallier. :-) (git) * Globally distributed back-ups. Each developer has a full copy of the repositories history. (git) * We're letting people who dig managing VCS servers manage ours instead of us tinkering with it. (GitHub) * Really easy, no software required patch submission. You can edit a file directly on github.com. (GitHub) * Seamlessly enables the incubator/sandbox model coupled with official releases that we've talked about for pear2. Want to start a new package? Create a project on GitHub and let pear-dev@ know about it, then propose creating an official repo for it once it's ready to go beta. We'll have a playground up in a few days for everyone to play with. I should stress that at this point we're still just toying with the idea. There seems to be a movement afoot in php-src to move to Git in the long-term, so this could be a good opportunity for PEAR to blaze the path. :-) -T On Jun 22, 2009, at 10:51 PM, Kazuyoshi Tlacaelel wrote:

This is great, I think this is great, this is great! Joshua has been providing a very reliable svn server for the pear-community thanks Joshua! am really happy, about this. and really want to see pear running on svn. (at least) or git (as a must) Trully I think we should draw a milestone/deadline and announce it on the pear site, for the next scm big change! and have everybody migrate according to that! This is really nice! On 2009/06/23, at 11:07, Greg Beaver wrote:

Are we still keeping CVS?, I'd rather keep using it for my packages. I use svn mounted dav for development locally, and commit them into CVS (unfortunatly it does not work with SVN to SVN commits). I dont mind deleting the svn code and putting a place holder to 'see cvs.php.net' in the folder?

Hi Alan, cvs.php.net is actually being shut down (unless my understanding is off) and replaced with svn.php.net Greg --PEAR Development Mailing List (http://pear.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
