Access to 4.1 svn/git branch?

[mitchellsimoens]

We are discussing a better way to do this internally.

We are still working on it.

Until we get something like svn or git or something better for a permanant solution... if you log into support.sencha.com you should see a Nightly Builds link in the Latest Build box.

Once again, hopefully we will get a more permanent solution but until then this, at least, gets you the latest code. You also get a changelog dump I believe.

The 'nightly builds' link does nothing...

How is internal scm being done? Why is it so hard to provide access to the current soure baseline?

Dang... didn't test it but this is where the snapshot will be, core devs are flying into california today for this week so the build may not have been run.

The translation between git and svn is a manual process.

It isn't like this is a new issue. Sencha announced a switch to git (http://www.sencha.com/blog/ext-js-is-migrating-to-git/) in Feb 2010 and Ed said

"First of all, keeping compatibility with svn is of upmost importance to us. Everyone with a support subscription will still have access to the latest commits. Although we are developing the code with Git, every commit is mirrored over to svn.
...
The move to git is an internal choice we’ve made to help us easily manage our multiple source branches. While the main git repository is on GitHub, if we have support subscribers who would like to move from svn to git we can add a mirror on our servers with the same access permissions that svn currently has."

So why not just provide access to a git mirror?

This is very helpful, thanks Mitchell.

For whatever it's worth, it worked for me a couple of hours ago.

Thank you... once the dev that has this all set up lands I will ask him to look into this.

Having our own git server is an option, one that we are exploring.

And I should point out that it's still working for me. Just checked it again.
