As someone who uses Ruby as my primary language; I'm totally jealous of this move. While there is a github mirror, it sucks having to use Subversion for the "one true repo" when everything else I work with these days is on git.
- tinco 12y agoI contributed to Ruby once by issueing a pull request to the GitHub mirror, it went fine. Is it less handy if you're a regular contributor?
- bigtunacan 12y agoYou can do pull requests through github, but Subversion is still preferred. Things aren't integrated; so for example if you look at https://github.com/ruby/ruby https://github.com/ruby/ruby you will notice Issues is not enabled; instead you have to go to a separate issue tracker over at https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-trunk/issues https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-trunk/issues. I still contribute, but the barrier to entry is higher; people have to hunt the ruby home page to find this information which is not ideal.
