I think the GIT team should make a decision NOW about whether GSOC students should use GIT or not.
I think I'm against this, on the grounds that there is a lot to go wrong, and much critical students Google-time, especially with those who may be even ranker amateurs than me ;-)
+1
Unless there is a firm commitment from the GIT team to support students using GIT, then I think they should stick to boost-sandbox and do things "the old way".
Views from the GIT team? Paul
...Or their mentors!
I'm mentoring a project and I'm a total, absolute git-beginner (used it, like, only sporadically for one small repo).
Is there any way to send git newbies like me and my student to the sandbox, at least one more year?
GSoC Boost.AFIO lives at https://github.com/ned14/boost.afio but will auto mirror itself into Boost Sandbox once Paul registers for Boost SVN commit privs.
If there's interest on how I configured this, do let me know.
That sounds interesting. I made you, Christopher, and Darren owners of the BoostGSoC organization on GitHub.
