next week, I'm planning to move the combined newlib/libgloss and cygwin
repository from CVS to git. The basic stuff is quickly done, but hooks,
mailing list handling, and changes to the websites are to be done, so I
expect the switch to take about two days.
I'll set up a commit moratorium starting next Monday at about 10:00 UTC.
When the git repo is up and working I'll throw the lever and inform the
mailing lists. Afterwards you can expect to access the new combined
newlib/cygwin git repository via either
git clone git://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git
or, if you have write permissions on the repo
git clone sourceware.org:/git/newlib-cygwin.git
Many thanks for this!
If you have write permissions, you may find it more convenient to do:
git clone git://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git
git remote set-url --push origin sourceware.org:/git/newlib-cygwin.git
... as then you don't have to authenticate to pull, only to push.
