Many people wish for Boost to move from svn to git.
I thought some of you might be interested in this article from lwn.net about PostgreSQL's transition to git: http://lwn.net/Articles/409635/ Quoting: The PostgreSQL Project finally switched from CVS to Git in September 2010, and did its first release based on the new Git repository on October 5. Making the switch happen took years and resulted in at least one near-disaster. Other projects that are contemplating, or working on, a transition in their version control system may find useful lessons in how PostgreSQL fared. I don't draw any particular conclusions from it w.r.t. Boost, but it might be worth a look - that is, if you have any spare reading-time left, after catching up with the recent unprecedented verbosity on this list... Regards, Phil.
