[ecasound] migrated sources from CVS to Git

[Kai V. <kve...@ec...>]

Hello all,

in recent times I've grown very fond of using distributed source code 
management tools. Especially for free/libre/open-source software, 
distributed SCM is the way to go. I've mostly used darcs [1] so far, but 
I'd now like to try others as well. I was originally going to use 
mercurial [1] (used by ALSA, Mozilla, opensolaris) for Ecasound sources, 
but due to some problems in importing the Ecasound CVS tree, I decided to 
go for Git [1] (used by Linux, Wine, Xorg, ...) instead.

So now there's a public git tree, containing full history info,
available at:

  - http://ecasound.seul.org/ecasound.git

To get the latest sources, first get git (I'm using git 1.5.x), and
then:

  sh> git clone http://ecasound.seul.org/ecasound.git ecasound-git
  sh> cd ecasound-git
  sh> ./autogen-cvs.sh
  sh> ./configure && make

Good links to get started with Git:

Good general papers about current state of SCMs:
