Hi,

We are mooting the point of migrating the source code repository from svn over to the current flavour of the month, git.

The advantages seem to be that it is much easier to support patches from the community and potentially moving forward greater availability of tooling support.

Disadvantages would be that we would most likely do a top-skim so for a while the history would be in two places.

Does anyone have any particular experience with svn/git migration and can help to argue the case to move or not?

Tom
