Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-11297:
--------------------------------------
We do not need to worry about whether the Github services has mechanisms in place for Git-Svn functionalities (or the other way around). That is covered by the Git-Svn functions of the ASF.

> Currently backport in Git (to R18 and R17) is mostly done by cherry picking. This is hand work. I think we should concentrate on tools necessary to backport with Git. Like the convenient scripts we had previously with Svn.
> And if we want to continuously/seriously backport to R16 we need a such tool too, from Git to Svn, using patches maybe. An alternative is to stop supporting R16 and release R17. Sincerely, I'm actually more inclined to this alternative...
