Hi All,
           
          Just following up on Peter’s email to
              remind you that the EclipseLink SVN repository will be
              locked EOB Friday, pending transition to the new Git
              repository.  SVN will continue to be available in
              read-only mode after that.
           
          To enable as smooth a transition as
              possible, please hold off on any non-essential commits
              after EOB Thursday, as we would like to keep the builds
              stable through-out this transition period.  
           
          July
                12th – complete regular check-ins to SVN
          July
                13th - final check ins to SVN.  Please hold off on
              any non-essential check-ins on this day.
              July 16th - Git repo will be online. 
           
          Thanks,
              David

          Hi All,
            
            As you all know, we are getting close to migrating to Git,
            and we have schedule, and are starting to work out what this
            all will mean.The current plan is that we will start using
            Git on July 16th.  What does this mean?  Well, in a perfect
            world it would mean that you would do your last SVN checkin
            on the 13th of July and then start using Git seamlessly the
            next monday.  I don't expect that to happen, but we are
            going to try and make things as painless as possible.
            
            They are still some unknowns at this point, but what we are
            going to try to do at this point is something like this:
            
            NOW - get tools needed for Git development, and start
            playing around with our sample repo (Eric can you send info
            on hwo to connect to that repo?)  
               --  http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Development/Process/Git
            July 13th - final check ins to SVN.  Note - any open
            TXNS after friday will have to be checked into GIT.
            July 16th - Git repo will be online, and we will
            likely be working out kinks for a few days at that point.  
            
            I know that some of you have been experimenting with GIT
            already, and will be able to help others.  Let's try to
            share knowledge to make this migration less painful...
            
            Peter
