[VOTE] Switch Log4j2 to Git

This topic was brought up elsewhere, so I'd like to propose a vote on
switching to Git.

+1 for me

Also, Ant recently switched to Git. It might be worth inquiring as to their
experiences with it.

EGit is terrible. I recommend SourceTree as a nice GUI for Git. It
certainly makes it easier to do advanced things with resolving merge
conflicts.

For what it's worth, the instructions here:
http://wiki.apache.org/logging/UsingGitWithLogging
with slight adaptions worked quite well. However, there are limitations
with using this due to Subversion. For instance, you need to keep your
repository history linear in order to properly commit back to svn.

I will vote +0.  With Intellij one is just as seamless as the other and to date I have found ways around needing branches.

We're considering Git because it makes branching and merging easier. This
is in the context of recent discussions on how to work on bugfix releases
and new features in parallel without too much busywork of syncing multiple
branches.

The person who called the VOTE should tally it and reply with a
[RESULT][VOTE] subject.

I don’t really care which we use but only one should be the “official” repository.  I believe Ivan switched log4php to git several months ago. Perhaps he can enlighten us on what was required to move to git and what benefits and/or detriments he has experienced since moving.

FYI, I've seen every other Apache project make their SVN location read-only
after moving to GIT.

If we switch to Git, we should make SVN read-only to avoid any confusion.
