Dear Massimo,

The advantages for me, even for a read-only mirror are:

1) It can be placed in github. This will add some small visibility. It is just another place that can direct to apache rivet through its readme.md file. 2) Perhaps it would be easier for some to monitor, fork, do some fixes and generate a pull request. (perhaps :-))

I would like also a bug tracking feature, but I see none of the mirrored projects having the "Issues" tab.

Yes, we are a tiny project compared to other Apache projects, but I think we should try... :-)

I don't see any real advantage in a read-only git mirror. Am I missing something? In case we should head to https://git-wip-us.apache.org/ which hosts primary repositories of many projects. Yes I knew about the git mirroring but I remember that, per bylaws prescriptions, some features are disabled, IIRC because git cannot guarantee the timeline of certain commits be preserved across local repositories, or something like that (don't ask me for the details, I don't remember). I was shy to ask to move a small project such as Tcl, restricted to the development of Rivet

Hi all,

I see that many projects have a read-only git mirror. These projects are
listed here:

http://git.apache.org/
<http://git.apache.org/>
        
Git at Apache <http://git.apache.org/>
git.apache.org
This is a collection of read-only Git mirrors of Apache codebases. The mirrors are automatically updated and contain full version histories (including branches and tags) from the respective source trees in the official Subversion repository at Apache.



Rivet is not included, and I think that creating such a mirror will be a
good idea.

What do you think?

George
