Its all done on github now, I wasn't aware that gitorious is a GNU project, it seemed everybody is on github. But github is terribly slow. I have (free private 2GB) repos at assembla too, and pushing to assembla is really fast, while pushes to github take quite some time even if only a typo was changed. > We can also consider hosting a new git project on orgmode.org, > if your needs are pretty basics. I think github and worg will suffice for code and docs, maybe with some more private stuff on assembla. >> Should I already consider a workflow similar to the one used by you >> for Org-mode? > > I'd say no: start with only one public master branch (and small local > branches when needed, of course), and change this workflow when needed. Ok, I keep it simple then. > If there are changes that need to be part of Org at some point, we will > create a branch for you, just as we have feature branch right now. at this simple level git seems to be really fun, while following your discussions with regards to org/git & emacs/bzr clearly shows that it all can end up in a nightmare of complexity ;) Thanks for the tips -- cheers, Thorsten
