Sorry for reviving an old thread and bikeshedding but, how about moving chdk to git *grin* (and github in particular)?
- easier and nicer branching (now that there's trunk, 1.0, etc.)
- allows organizations (e.g. the "CHDK Team" owns the main chdk branch, just like svn would do it)
- tools and autobuilds need little change (e.g. git pull chdk master or git pull chdk r1.0 instead of svn up)
- code reviews are super (in-line comments through web)
- pull requests (easily integrate patches from other developers with a single click..........or reject them with a nice inline comment
)
- tools, tools, tools:
https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/InterfacesFrontendsAndToolsedit:
- i think we can even import the chdk wiki from wikia into a nicer github wiki (no ads)
edit2: DONE!
https://github.com/c10ud/CHDK/wiki/_pages ofcourse there's still some issues and room to improve
(like removing User and Files pages) but this is just a test
as an example i imported chdk recently while working on s100 because i find myself more comfortable with it (note: i very much used svn in the past), see the result (main branch, other branches):
https://github.com/c10ud/CHDKOfcourse this is mostly dependant on current chdk main devs (reyalp, philmoz, etc. ..and autobuild people) will and habits, i'm just throwing ideas
cheers
