About time! Totally awesome though.
Now, code.google.com and others have no excuse anymore, right? ;)

Except that it is run by Subversion people, and therefore it by like 
asking git.or.cz to serve Mercurial repositories ;-)

It seems there's a bunch of sillyness in there, such as them
recommending backup over rsync?! They should be telling people to just
make a clone, and in the case of a crash they can push the clone back
up!
Also, maybe we can tell them git learned how to clone empty repo's recently?

Heh, speaking of Hg, I heard they're adding DVCS support to
code.google.com soon, if they're already adding a non-svn VCS, why not
git? :D

It's not in any release yet, is it?

True, that. But when it is we can? What with 1.6.2 soon-to-be-released and all?

Yeah, it was mostly wishful thinking from my side. There's some work
being done on git and hg interoperability though, so if worst comes to
worst, I could live with using something like git-hg ;).

Is code.google.com really that bad...?

I always thought google was supposed to be a bit better than the other
guys...

It is currently, since they only host svn ;).

Who knows, at the moment though, they only have svn and I'm personally
not holding my breath for git support anytime soon.

I think it's almost perfect... except for the choice of VCS.

Well, git has become so freakingly popular that supporting any DVCS
that is not git would generate lots of complaints.

Hehe, since when have big company's ever bothered with 'lots of
complaints'? ;) I mean, they're offering a free service, they can
always hide behind "if you don't like it, use something else".

Great news.

I have some more. At Apache we are in the process of setting up official Git mirror of our SVN repository.

It may sound like nothing really big but first step (even small) is important. We are already discussing how we could
change our work-flow if we have more powerful tools in place.

Personally, I would like to thank Git community for producing such great piece of software and supporting it here in
very professional and vivid way.
