Hey folks!

The PHP-Documentation has moved to git!

Not at the same day as the PHP8-release but at least in the same year ;-)

Nikita and myself took the last steps today to finalize what a number of
people have been working on for the last at least 4 years.

Thanks to Derick, Rasmus, Sara, Paul, Peter, Gabriel and a lot of others
for their support, encouragement and help.

So from now on there is no possibility to contribute to the
documentation via SVN. All the contributions have to go via git now.

Details regarding setup can be found at
https://github.com/php/doc-base/blob/master/README.md

This move also means that there are now mirrors of the documentation at
github through which contributions can be made now.

There are some minor things still waiting to happen like the revcheck
(which is currently being worked on) or not all github mirrors having
actually "mirrored" yet (as they need a propper commit to start the
mirroring).

But in general: It is done!

What is the next goal now? Create the best documentation PHP has ever had!

Cheers

Andreas

Hello there,

Thank you so much for this, Andreas, Nikita, and everyone involved!
I know there was (is) a lot of work involved and I can't wait to start using
this new workflow.

Kind regards,

Stands.
Begins slow clap.
Clapping builds to a crescendo as the rest of the PHP community joins in.
Loud whistling and hootin' and hollerin' are mixed into the cacophony.

You are a hero. Some day people will sing songs about you. (and everyone
else involved in this migration)

What is the next goal now? Create the best documentation PHP has ever had!

Thanks
