[Python-markdown-discuss] git and gitorious

[Yuri T. <qar...@gm...>]

Waylan's patch reminded me of something I wanted to bring up: should we
consider moving from SF's subversion to something a tiny little bit less
sucky?  I recently moved Sputnik over to a git repository hosted by
gitorious.org and I since can't stop telling people how much in love I am
with both git and gitorious.  I wake up in the morning and look forward to
the day knowing that if someone emails me a patch it will be in form of a
link to something like:

http://gitorious.org/projects/sputnik/repos/mainline/commits/3028915518ebdc0574bf3255f2ffa48c82e395eb

And that it would then take me no time to integrate it, even if my own code
has moved on.

There is also a nice open-sourcy thing about gitorious (and git more
generally), in that people don't need my permission to start making clones
and commits (into their clones).  They just need to email me a list of
commits later.  Click around the Sputnik gitorious repository and compare
this with what we have now:

Gitorious: http://gitorious.org/projects/sputnik/
SF:  http://python-markdown.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/python-markdown/
