Git support on Sourceforge is very minimal (Score:2)

by grantm (164)

Yes, Git support was added to Sourceforge recently, but the support is very minimal - one repository per project. I like to use one repo for the project itself and another for the web site. Some projects (e.g.: Perl-XML) use the CVS modules facility to have one repository per distribution. Subversion kind of supports this through its "tag-isa-branch-isa-module-isa-directory" model. In Git you could have completely independent branches for different purposes but that just seems wrong.

  It looks like SourceForge have fixed this problem and now projects can have multiple git repos. Unfortunately at this moment all git URLs on their site are broken as what was git://project.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/project should now be: git://project.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/project/project
