| 10 | Still, maybe we should not jump on this version yet: |
| 11 | - with svn2git we could split it to several repositories easily |
| 12 | (see [1] for status you on related experiments) |
| 13 | - neither svn2git nor git-svn seem to support proper conversion of |
| 14 | changes to svn:ignore |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Summer of code could help about the latter: |

| 18 | |
| 19 | But pushing the conversion further into the future could also be a |
| 20 | trade-off reducing efficiency and the number of contributions. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | I don't feel like proposing anything on that matter at the moment. With |
| 23 | that said: what do you and Robin think? |
