- xyzzyb 14y agoThat's really cool, thanks for cluing me in. But it looks like it's just limited support. Does it support all the github things like forks, pull requests, etc? Do you have a link to an SVN repo on github? I'd love to check one out.
- Xylakant 14y agoActually the way support works is that github emulates a svn acces layer on top of the git repository. So you can use every repository hosted on github with an svn client and get pretty much the same feature-set as git users.
