[Qemu-devel] Git and SVN at savannah.nongnu.org

[Gabriel Southern]

Hi,

Is the Git repository at git://git.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu.git being
kept up-to-date, or should I switch to a different mirror?  It looks
like its last update was on Jan 27 and there have been lots of commits
to the SVN repository since then.  If anyone has advice about what
server to use I appreciate it.

Thanks,

-Gabriel

I personally use git://git.kernel.dk/qemu.git

For that very reason, I maintain my own git-svn mirror, at 
git://repo.or.cz/qemu.git

The git repo on Savannah will eventually become the official git tree.  
I'm still experimenting with the git capabilities of Savannah.

I'd like to switch us from SVN to git after the next release.  I took a 
survey of the current maintainers and almost all of them are currently 
using git.  Most of the patches being submitted are also against a git tree.

What's in the Savannah git tree is from git.kernel.org.  I've checked 
and it is also compatible with the tree on repo.or.cz.  As long as you 
use the obvious options to git-svn, the resulting tree should be compatible.

FWIW, hpa keeps a git mirror of qemu at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/qemu.git
that's what I use for development, it's usually up to date.

It does not work for me (says that the remote end hung up), but AFAIR HPA 
did not expose anything else but the trunk to the world.

If you are only following the tip of the trunk, it does not matter.

Thanks for the explanation.  Also thanks to everyone who pointed out
other mirrors that can be used.
