Update 2: On October 7th we will shut down git.sailfishos.org
.
Update: After September, 14th we plan do shut down git.sailfishos.org
.
Sailfish source code repositories have been hosted in several locations over the years. This has been causing some confusion. We are now making this simpler by starting a cleanup and concentrating our code trees towards one location: github.com/sailfishos.
We have been making the preparations and are now planning to do the migration in following steps:
-
Mirror repositories from git.sailfishos.org to github.com/sailfishos - DONE
-
Take github to use as the main codeline for building Sailfish OS - DONE
-
Make git.sailfishos.org read-only - DONE
-
Close git.sailfishos.org - Planned: After 2021-10-07
We are starting this process now and if there are no issues in the new setup we would be ready to close the old service soon afterwards. After the migration we will update the guidance at SailfishOS Source - SailfishOS Documentation
This new, simpler, setup should be a benefit for both Jolla and the Sailfish community. As github is one of the most popular open source hosting service, contributors typically have accounts and are familiar with the workflows leading to a lower barrier to contribute to the software.
Happy Hacking,
Vesku
