All, I've pushed up a copy of the my own synced git-svn copy of the Guidelines at https://github.com/TEIC/Guidelines-TEST. It's got issues and a wiki enabled, so we can try those out as we like. Commits to SF should be synced periodically by my server, but changes you push here will not automatically be sent back to SourceForge (so you can try it out, with the foreknowledge that they'll probably be deleted). Currently in-use branches have been copied, but I've not bothered to create the old ones (the history is there, but they're not visible as branches). I've also not bothered to create any tags. This may be something that has to be done manually, as git tags are not branches, unlike svn tags. I bet there's a script for it somewhere. If not, I don't think writing one would be hard. Request for everyone: can you try out cloning and messing with this? In particular I'd like to know what *doesn't* seem to work, and what the pain points are. All of them. We will obviously need to develop new tutorials/documentation for this, so I very much want to know what's confusing, up to and including "I don't even know where to start with this git thing". Please don't be shy or embarrassed—you will not be judged. This is a new thing to many of us and will be to new members of Council in the future. GUI clients for those who prefer them are available at https://windows.github.com and https://mac.github.com. I've zero experience with them, but they may be nicer to work with if you're less comfortable in the command line.
