Moved to git!

The new git repository is live! You can clone it from here:

   https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/avro.git

It looks like the commit hashes are identical to the ones in the github 
mirror, so it should just appear like trunk has been renamed to master 
if you've already cloned the github mirror. In that case, just run this:

   git remote add apache https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/avro.git

The old SVN repository is still RW so we can change the site/ folders, 
so please remember to push to the git repo's master instead of 
committing code changes to SVN. Does anyone know if we still use those 
folders? If not, then we can probably switch it over to read-only.

There are a few tasks that we will still need to do, like updating docs 
[1] and the build.sh script. These are good starter issues if anyone out 
there wants to become a contributor!

Do we want git release tags that match ASF policy for our older releases,
or just going forward?

They're supposed to look like "rel/_release_". Given our current tagging
strategy, that would make e.g. the 1.8 release "rel/release-1.8.0".

(the rel/ namespace doesn't allow tags to change once they're created)

Hi,

I just noticed both these pages
     http://avro.apache.org/version_control.html
     https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AVRO/How+To+Contribute
have not been updated to reflect the change to git.

Can one of you guys pick this up please?

Niels Basjes

There's a gitpubsub now, so we could move the site over to git if we so
desired. It can either be a branch (asf-site) or it can be in its own git
repo (useful if we want to automate site generation and publication at some
point).

The site folder (https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/avro/site) contains
the website, so we do still need to able to write to it. As far as I
know, sites still use svnpubsub at the ASF so we need to keep these
pages in svn (see http://www.apache.org/dev/project-site.html).
