[VOTE] move to using git rather than svn for Isis code
The idea of using git rather than svn for the Isis codebase has been
discussed several times in the past. Now that we have graduated, it seems
a good time to formally vote on whether we want to make this change.
There are three options available:
1. carry on using svn. (In this case, I will carry on maintaining an
informal read-only copy on github as a convenience to contributors who
prefer to create patches using git)
2. use git.apache.org as a read-only clone, with svn remaining as the
master. (This is similar to 1, though git.apache.org is a more formal copy
way of doing this)
3. use git.apache.org as a read/write master, and retire use of svn for the
Isis codebase.
As usual, this vote will be open for at least 72 hours. Please indicate
your preference as (1), (2) or (3). I have cc'ed to
users@isis.apache.orgin order to elicit the widest number of views.
Thanks

Nour, this was concluded... see [RESULT] thread [1]

Because of workload, they indicate might take >= 1 week.

yup, couchdb use git for their codebase, and svn as the backing store for
their site (using Apache's CMS). I suggest we follow the same path.
When I IRC'ed with <danielsh> on infra yesterday, it was kinda like, "we
just need to know if you are on svn or git..". There are further docs here
