I'm now doing routine maintenance and development of the Boost Filesystem library via a public Git repository hosted on GitHub.
So far this whole experiment has been very reassuring. No problems and everything worked instantly. There was almost no learning curve, since I'd already been using Git and GitHub for awhile.
I am glad that somehow stepped upf or this. I am really happy it worked out so well. can't this process be used for a possible git boost migration ?
If a bunch of active libraries were to switch to this process well before Boost converted to Git, it would help ensure a smooth transition. But I glossed over feeding diffs back into the current SVN trunk. I need to smooth that out, probably by writing a little script. git-svn isn't useful because the Git repo has a different directory structure than the SVN repo. --Beman
