[M3devel] Git, a call for participation

[Coleburn, Randy]

Dragiša:

I am not currently a member of GitHub.  From what I understand, this site provides some social networking functionality and requires that software supporting this functionality be installed on your computer.


1.      Is it possible to take advantage of Git for source code checkin/checkout WITHOUT also becoming a member of GitHub?
If so, what, if any, are the limitations of not being a member wrt the future of the CM3 repository?


2.      What are the security concerns with installing the GitHub software?

My company severely restricts use of social media (it is blocked via the various firewalls), so that may make use of GitHub more difficult in my situation.

I think I should be able to use TortoiseGit for source code checkin/out, since I currently use TortoiseCVS; however, I have not used TortoiseGit before, so there will be a slight learning curve for me I’m sure.

Thanks,
Randy Coleburn

Hi,

To proceed with planned conversion, I need developers to join github and connect me there (dragisha @ github). Once we have developers connected there, we can proceed and switch.

TIA,
