It seems that forks of boostorg/build switched their parent automatically and I could not find a way to open a PR against boostorg/build. What is happening and how do I proceed?

I was going to announce this in the weekend.. B2 development has moved to < https://github.com/bfgroup/b2>. If you can, please do PRs there. Not sure why you can't do a PR against boostorg/build though. It should still be possible to fork that for PRs.

Does this mean the latest Boost Build source within Boost should come from https://github.com/bfgroup/b2 rather than from https://github.com/boostorg/build ?

The Boost.Build that Boost uses comes from github.com/boostorg/build (and ships in Boost distributions as tools/build). (boostorg/build may periodically get features from bfgroup/b2, etc.) Glen

What is the correct repository to create issues and PRs against so that a problem in Boost is fixed? Do we need to transfer existing issues and PRs?

Short answer is no. I'll post a longer answer some time this weekend. -- -- René Ferdinand Rivera Morell -- Don't Assume Anything -- No Supone Nada -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net

If you want to open up a PR against boostorg/build you would need to fork boostorg/build (your fork is currently a fork of bfgroup/b2). Glen

Why does it seem like there has been a constant background level of turbulence related to Boost.Build as of late? Thanks
