Hello everyone,
Thank you for all the feedback. I shall now digest it, read up more on svnsync, git-svn, etc., and then hopefully come up with something interesting to say. Thanks again, --Zem From: justin.erenkra...@gmail.com [mailto:justin.erenkra...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Justin Erenkrantz Sent: Tuesday, 01 January 2013 18.20 To: Ziemowit Laski; dev@subversion.apache.org Subject: Re: Would branching across repositories be theoretically possible?

I suppose you chose dev@ because of your idea to develop support for cross-repository copies, which I'll address now: At a meta-level, I've seen this dismissal and plea to just send to users@ instead happen a few times recently on dev@. I'd like to ensure we don't hinder potential contributors by sending out the wrong tone in their initial interactions with dev@. We welcome all contributors with open arms. To me, Zem's initial post was perfectly appropriate for dev@ and given the ensuing discussions including some that apparently happened off-list, it was (and is) a good catalyst for discussion and bringing those discussions back to the list. In other words, in my opinion, a very good and on-topic dev@ post. Back to the topic at hand, my take on this feature is it's probably a good idea to figure out how to solve it...the landscape over a decade ago when we started out isn't the same as it is now. -- justin P.S. Hi Zem! =)
