gitlab conversion online.
marcov:
Hello,
After several technical issues (8 tries were needed to convert the FPC
sources to git), the move from svn/mantis to gitlab has been completed.
The FPC sources are now available at
https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source
All FPC git repositories are available at:
https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc
This is also where bugs can be reported from now on:
All Mantis issues have been converted to Gitlab issues.
Depending on where you report an issue, the Gitlab system will ask you to
select a project under which to report a bug.
Note that e.g. documentation bugs should be reported in the documentation
repository:
https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/documentation
etc.
A redirect has been put in place for the old bug system, if possible the
system will redirect you to the correct issue in Gitlab.
A similar redirect will be put in place for the viewvc repository view tool.
The "development" page has been updated with the necessary instructions to
connect with Git:
https://www.freepascal.org/develop.html
More information about git has been placed in the WIKI:
https://wiki.freepascal.org/FPC_git
The lazarus team also placed a version at
https://wiki.freepascal.org/SVN_to_GIT_Cheatsheet
If you see places where we overlooked updating the SVN to git or mantis to
gitlab information, please let us know on the maillist...
Michael.

Does that really work? After about 60% git clone I get an RPC error or something like that. The download stops. Git is a dubious technology. SVN was much more stable.

Marco, please could that list be placed on a webpage somewhere with an *UNCHANGING* URL so that it can be bookmarked for reference.

Yes, it works, Might be a glitch on your network:

While it's true that SVN is much more mature (and I prefer it too), I seriously doubt that Git is "dubious tech". Remember: it was created (and is actively used) to control the Linux kernel source; it's difficult to think of a bigger or more demanding piece of software to maintain.

Why a glitch in my network? SVN worked for years. Git sucks.
