Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [VOTE] Choosing a distributed version control system
 for PHP
From: neufeind@php.net (Stefan Neufeind)

I'm fine with git and I think moving to something like that together
with up-to-date tools to contribute (or review patches etc.) will help a
lot.

But I would prefer to keep the (core) infrastructure at PHP internally.
It's just *so* much easier to integrate tools, add things like hooks for
the bugtracker or whatever.

Having people develop part of a project on github then is surely fine -
but php-infrastructure would still be the "official core" imho.

In this discussion I previously mentioned the TYPO3-community (which I
guess stand for a lot of others) who integrated a review-system based on
gerrit into their forge (actually a RedMine-based system; including
bugtracker etc.) And that integration has helped a lot - both in
openness/ease of use as well as actually "getting the job done".


It looks like the basic vote goes in the git-direction - first step
taken :-) But I hope we'll find a wise decision on how to further
continue in this matter afterwars.


PS: Thank you all for your time and work in this matter.


Regards,
 Stefan
