NetBSD & Fossil



Hello,

recently I moved from Linux to Free/PC-BSD, but consider to switch to NetBSD.

I recall there was talk in the past about possible migration of NetBSD
project to Fossil DVCS. There are some Fossil repos available like e.g.

http://netbsd.sonnenberger.org/timeline

http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/repositories/fossil/

and I have tried to clone it, but was aborted. Still, I wonder what is the
current status in regard?

Is it still considered as an option?

While chatting with some people in #netbsd I got feeling that some devs are
concsidering that Fossil does not scale for their needs.

Is it something which can be overcome or usage of Sqlite (according to some)
is the stumbling block?

Personally I like Fossil, but for every project I do want to contribute I
have to use Git and therefore ’switch gears’ which could be avoided by simply
embracing Git.


Sincerely,
Gour
