Hi List,

Quite a few people mentioned that they want to use git as a frontend to
the svn server. Therefore most of them need an initial import of the
svn.php.net repository using git-svn. As this operation will retrieve
every version in the repository, we decided to offer a semi-official git
mirror.

This mirror will be hosted on the php.net infrastructure, soon, but
until we setup the necessary software, I maintain a manually updated
repository at github. The repository has a complete import of php-src
with all branches and tags.

The repository can be found at:
http://github.com/dsp/php/tree/master

Please use this clone and do _not_ import the whole repository yourself.

A FAQ how to setup the repository to commit back into the svn can be
found in the wiki at:
http://wiki.php.net/vcs/svnfaq

David

great news, thanks for this!  we'll (debian php maintainers) hold off
on doing any kind of git-svn mirroring then, and wait for the
semi-official one to show up.

I'm not sure how long that will take, just use the github mirror for
now.
