Hi Folks,
I've just cut us over to a new server running git and redmine instead
of trac and subversion.

Thank you for your and Johnathan and Matt efforts to run this project.
The problem (from my point of view) in git is that we lost the meaning of
revision number. In past (with subversion), the gnuradio revision number can
(some how) point to the development process so we know that some gnuradio
developed projects can work without problems with a specific gnuradio revision
number (for example as do some projects in CGRAN). Even some, revision numbers
can be remembered (I remember rev 10165 for example) because there were major
changes in gnuradio project.
Now when I see a gnuradio revision with random hexadecimal number (is it really
random?), I totally miss the days of subversion!!.
Best Regards,

Firas,
I've heard a lot from both developers and non-developers about the
issues from moving between subversion and git, and I understand the
initial reaction. However, having worked with git over the past few
months, it really does make things simpler and easier to work with other
developers. It's not like changing your mindset from cvs to subversion.
The way git works is pretty different. However, once you've gotten used
to it, I think you'll start to see the benefits. (almost) All of those
people that I have heard complaints from about the move to git, once
they get over the initial learning curve, have all come to see it as a
good thing.
For reference, I've found www.gitready.com to be a very useful resource.
