[asterisk-users] Asterisk is moving to Git

[Matthew Jordan]

Hello!

For quite some time now, there's been a desire in the Asterisk project
to move the project source control from Subversion to Git. After a lot
of work and planning, we believe we are finally able to start that
process.

Starting on Monday, April 13th, the Asterisk project's Subversion
repository will be set to read-only. New changes will no longer be
made in any of the Subversion branches. A new Git repository for the
Asterisk project will be set up using Gerrit [1] as the primary
repository, with mirrors conveniently located at git.asterisk.org [2].

While we've done a lot of work to plan for this migration, things can
(and probably will) happen during this process. As such, there may be
some hiccups during the next week or two while we iron out the finer
points that such a large change will have on the project. If you are
used to pulling directly from the project's Subversion repository,
please be patient as we make this leap. At the same time, if you do
happen to encounter any issues, please don't hesitate to send an
e-mail to the asterisk-dev mailing list [3] or talk with the
developers in the #asterisk-dev IRC channel.

As always, thanks for supporting the Asterisk project!

Matt
