Move to git / github? #331

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hello there,
I stumbled upon this project when looking for an MIT-licensed c++ engine. I 
have added some things and would like to contribute back to the project.
But here is my problem: SVN makes it impossible to do local commits, to better 
organise what to commit back upstream. It is also difficult to propose a 
patchset for merging as you need to upload .diff files. With git you can simply 
make a pull request and directly merge the changes from my personal repository 
into the main repository. Does a patch need editing? instead of reuploading a 
.diff file, you just either roll back the commit in your personal repo or you 
simply add another commit to the pull request.
I believe that switching to git will make the barrier for participating in this 
project considerably lower than it is now, and it might give the project the 
push it needs.
I see the potential of this project and would love to get involved more.

Kind regards,
Cornee Traas

I created a github project here and will invite core developers to join, and 
any developer can create a fork and send pull requests.
