We need to be clear on how the process works with move to git, I am not familiar with the process followed by other groups that use git currently.
A [DISCUSS] thread for discussing the specifics might be appropriate. I assume the central git repository would still be the one in apache. Does that we mean we work using *github* pull requests like what spark does ? - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SPARK/Contributing+to+Spark#ContributingtoSpark-ContributingCode I haven't done this, but I assume it is possible to pull a github pull request into the apache git. Would that be the way to merge the patch in ? One (misplaced?) concern I have about git, is that merging pull requests would result in lots of branches and it would be hard to understand the sequence of changes. (maybe rebasing the changes in pull request before commit would help). I would like to see more clarity on this before we move ahead.
