One is on sourceware (sourceware.org:/cvs/gdb/htdocs), and one is on Savannah. For now, it is easier for me if you just send me the patch you want to commit, and I do it. Otherwise, the re-synchronization on my end can be painful. > AFAIK the current process is that commits go to both sourceware.org's CVS and > to another copy in gnu.org as well for the https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/ . > I had chatted with Joel at the Cauldron about streamlining this, and the > conclusion seemed to be that there's no real blocker for making the gnu.org > version simply a redirect to sourceware.org. That would simplify things. The > other neat step would be to migrate to git. :-) Do you guys know who to ask to get the redirection? And before we do, should we perhaps consider the opposite redirection? In other words, redirect from sourceware.org to gnu.org/software/gdb? One strong requirement before we can consider it is that Savannah first support git repositories. It seems to be possible: https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/UsingGit/ The secondary problem would then become - figuring out how to automate the auto-update of the website upon pushing new changes. The redirect to sourceware might make things easier, but it would be a one-off action item, and then things would be on the GNU server. Just not the best time for me to take on another task, unfortunately :-(. In the meantime, I'm happy to push changes sent to me. That part just takes a couple of minutes each time. -- Joel
