    Currently, the version control software he's using is CVS. Now he plans to switch to Git, which is a newer version control software.

    I imagine people who currently have access to the CVS will have access to the Git repos?

    Do you know what process you'd recommend for making commits, or is that still up in the air? With Git, it seems it's common practice for developers to make a branch off the master and make their changes in the branch, then commit, push, and merge their brnach back into master. I'm curious if you're planning do recommend doing that, or just having all work done in the master branch?

    I imagine people who currently have access to the CVS will have access to the Git repos?

    Everyone has read-access. Write-access to a non-master branch can be done by anyone (that creates an account at gitlab.synchro.net).

    Do you know what process you'd recommend for making commits, or is that still up in the air?

    I think you'd fork it to a personal branch (on gitlab.synchro.net) and when you're ready to commit to master, submit a merge request.

    With Git, it seems it's common practice for developers
    to make a branch off the master and make their changes in the branch, then commit, push, and merge their brnach back into master. I'm curious if you're planning do recommend doing that, or just having all work done in the master branch?

    Only maintainers can commit to sbbs/master, so yeah, other commiters will need to submit a merge request like you described.

    Sysops can change the colors in their text.dat, same as before. If that was your question.

    You can always change your own text.dat. The only reason text.dat in the Synchronet repository would need to be changed would be for official updates to Synchronet.

    $ The Millionaire $

    when you see a post from wiki it means that there was a change to 'the' wiki page, in this case, it states "switching to git" which means that the sbbs dev tree will be moved from cvs to git

    it isn't supposed to show those old-style CVS commit version numbers... they do not mean anything any more... at least not automatically generated and maintained ones... manually maintinaing a version number for each file
    will be a mess and not worth the trouble in most cases...
