Cafu on Github

Hello everyone,
because I prefer git, github forking is awesome and I couldn't find it yet, I uploaded the Cafu subversion trunk to github. I'll update it from time to time; feel free to remind me
Here it is:
https://github.com/sycoso/Cafu
Of course I'd prefer Carsten to do it, but I guess he's just not into using git, so I'll do it for him
Btw: feel free to put the thread in the right subforum!

Hi sycoso,
welcome to the Cafu forums!
Many thanks for putting a copy of Cafu to GitHub!
I've updated our documentation that refers to Git (Getting Started with the Cafu Source Code, Dev FAQ) to also link back to this thread.
I have in fact switched several other project repositories that I use from Subversion to Git. For example, this website is maintained in a Git repository since about half a year.
However, switching the Cafu repository is a quite big challenge:
- We use vendor branches to manage the external libraries, which are not trivially migrated to Git (submodules), especially if you wish to maintain proper branching structure.
- Our issue tracker is quite closely interweaved with the Subversion repository. A migration is possible, but it takes careful planning and a lot of time.
As soon as I can resolve these issues, I'll also provide an "official" Cafu Git repository.

Hi Carsten,
wow, didn't expect such a positive response
Okay, then I'll try to keep it up to date until there is an official version.
Btw: your smilies look sort of creepy

That's not a smiley, it's my avatar.
But, really... creepy?
I got quite used to and grew fond of them (although I think about throwing about 2/3 of them out).
Do you happen to know a better set?

I was tempted to comment about the "avatar/smiley" thing, but I didn't expect that you would do it to yourself

Actually I was talking about those:
They are supposed to be positive?
But no, sorry, I don't know a better set
