Henri Yandell closed LEGAL-478.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Releases when working with git (gitbox/GitHub)
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LEGAL-478
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-478
> Project: Legal Discuss
> Issue Type: Question
> Components: Policy Question
> Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
> Priority: Major
>
> There is an apparently outdated (it says in its title that it refers to the "experimental writable git repos" which are no longer experimental) page here
> http://apache.org/dev/writable-git
> which says that
> * The ASF repo must be the canonical master repo that all committers push changes to.
> * ASF releases must be cut from the canonical ASF Git repositories.
> The current page appears to be https://gitbox.apache.org - and it says
> * This service, gitbox.apache.org, provides Apache projects with a two-master setup of git repositories, allowing committers to utilize two different avenues of committing code to the Apache Software Foundation; through GitHub or through the ASF.
> * People that do not wish to utilize GitHub may continue using thier ASF credentials to push code to gitbox.apache.org - we do not mandate use of one of the other.
> So if the info on https://gitbox.apache.org supersedes the http://apache.org/dev/writable-git, then I interpret that as:
> * push where you want (through GitHub or ASF since they are synched)
> * when you release, clone and push also where you want (through GitHub or ASF since they are synched)
> Is that correct?
> If yes, would it be feasible to remove the outdated page along with the document explaining why pushes must go through the ASF repo (http://www.sunstarsys.com/essays/git-and-non-repudiation) to avoid confusion?
