AFAIK, moving to git would be a big hurdle for Windows developers.
Related to this, before considering such a change you could isolate as many of these Windows (and other) developers as possible: provide a plugin SDK (as part of the install, I would propose, or as a separate download). The only reason that I (Windows and Linux) need access to the Wireshark source is to produce plugins. To be honest, I "produce" my own SDK as part of my build process, and then use that over and over again to build plugins as they change. I don't know how many other developers do exactly the same as I, but with that kind of downloadable SDK I would not care whether svn or git was used. Without it, since I am not interested in supporting git throughout our build process, I would have to move my "SDK" build to a manual process, or switch to source downloads (if they exist). -Bryant ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
