Git or SVN?

[Javier Hdez]

Hello,

What repository recommend?


https://github.com/apache/ofbiz

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/trunk/


Best regards

I used both .svn as .git. And both have the same size.

Anybody knows if its always the same? I mean when somebody commits to svn, he does it to Git also?

Hi Javier and Trenton,

The Subversion repo is the official one for OFBiz. Most Apache projects also use Subversion. The ASF has been working on support for git, and there are read-only git mirrors for the Subversion repos. For example, the OFBiz one is at git://git.apache.org/ofbiz.git .

Github is also mirroring ASF projects, but that is for the convenience of Github members and they are not the "official" ASF repos.

See http://www.apache.org/dev/git.html#git-mirrors for more.

Cheers

I think the same commit is synchronized with svn and git at once.

Thanks for the clarification, was using Git repositoro, but then I'll use the svn.
