A little question, although: Where are our (experimental) branches now? :P<br>

'ReactOS<br>

&gt; Objet : [ros-dev] ReactOS Repository migrated to GitHub
<div class="HOEnZb">
<div class="h5">&gt;<br>
&gt; Today, the ReactOS Source Code has been migrated from a central
Subversion<br>
&gt; instance to a decentralized Git repository. Together with that, ReactOS joins
the<br>
&gt; list of projects using the popular GitHub service for developing
software:<br>
&gt; <a href="https://github.com/reactos/reactos"
target="_blank"
rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/reactos/<wbr>reactos…
&gt; We expect that this move greatly improves the way we collaborate on
ReactOS<br>
&gt; development and reduces the barriers for newcomers. Just fork our
repository<br>
&gt; on GitHub, commit your changes and send us a Pull Request!<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Migrating a source code history of more than 20 years that had seen
multiple<br>
&gt; version control systems was not a straightforward task.<br>
&gt; Deciding on a decentralized version control system has not been
either.<br>
&gt; First discussions already started back in 2009, when neither Git nor
Mercurial<br>
&gt; were able to fully convert a large SVN repository like ours and Git’s
Windows<br>
&gt; support was still neglected. Things improved massively over the years,
with<br>
&gt; GitHub and Git for Windows emerging as reliable tools for software<br>
&gt; development. But the ReactOS Project still took advantage of some
Subversion<br>
&gt; features, so only a smooth migration using a two-way SVN-Git mirror
was<br>
&gt; attempted in 2016. This failed miserably, however important lessons
were<br>
&gt; learned for a future complete migration to Git. The tipping point was
reached<br>
&gt; in early 2017 when a majority of ReactOS developers spoke out in favor
of<br>
&gt; moving to Git. Finally, the ReactOS Hackfest in August offered a forum to
try<br>
&gt; out things and discuss every little detail of the planned migration. And this
is<br>
&gt; what got us here today!<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The development documentation is still in the process of being rewritten
to<br>
&gt; account for the Git migration. You may currently find outdated
information<br>
&gt; here and there. However, most of that is on the Wiki, so you are more
than<br>
&gt; welcome to help us!<br>
&gt; The SVN Repository has been turned read-only and will be kept online for
a<br>
&gt; while at the last revision r76032. Our Git mirror now mirrors the
GitHub<br>
&gt; repository. If you have already been using our old Git mirror, please note
that<br>
&gt; you have to do a fresh clone of our new repository (from either GitHub or
the<br>
&gt; mirror) as the old and new ones are incompatible.<br>
&gt; JIRA continues to be used for bug tracking, BuildBot for continuous
integration,<br>
&gt; and FishEye as a code browser.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I would like to thank all the people who have helped with this migration, be
it<br>
&gt; on IRC, the mailing lists or at the Hackfest! Special thanks also go to the
KDE<br>
&gt; Project for their excellent svn-all-fast-export tool that was used for
the<br>
&gt; conversion. If you are ever in a similar situation, have a look at my
conversion<br>
&gt; scripts as well as the Git helpers for our infrastructure.<br>
