Hi Tolleiv,

thanks for your feedback.

No, it's not. And I know that there are agencies out there, which have
deployment tools that still rely on svn. That's why I'm asking.

The reason is more to have one system in our community, not two in. We
all should migrate our brains to git. That's at least my opinion.

svn has pretty constantly 35-40GB/month
git has climbed 340,498,540 (jul/aug/sep)

The cause for that huge increase/amount are very likely different
jenkins and travis builds, which always clone complete repos.

I'm asking here because I think the announcement of Git for extensions
should also provide information about how we proceed with SVN.
I will try to push things forward and take over the remaining
Leader/Member split in Gerrit so that we can finally do this
announcement (as Peter is focused on updating redmine).
Then there's (it just comes to my mind) one last step: Creating new
forge projects must create a git repo (only). Yes.. another TODO :/

So you still have some time do discuss until that is finished ;-)

Kind regards
Steffen
