Jason Parker commented on ASTERISK-20703:
-----------------------------------------

We decided that it would be too big of a burden on a branch.  Not to mention any scripts that do updates for people, that would fail.

> While discussing the migration process from subversion to git that we'd like to do for the Asterisk project, the issue of menuselect came up.  Namely, that it makes the migration to git a *lot* harder.
> Since Asterisk is the only project that uses menuselect, it can be moved into the Asterisk project.  There are a lot of implications to this however, including changes to the repotools project's scripts.  We'll have to also make sure that updating to a version of Asterisk is relatively smooth, as this will have to occur in all of the major version branches.
> This will also impact older versions of Asterisk, so the menuselect repo will still have to exist to support versions prior to Asterisk 1.8.
