Until now, I've tended to access the .patch version of these pull requests and apply them in SVN. Is there a preferred approach to take here? I have a GitHub account, so presumably I could be given rights to the repositories I commit to (lang) and this would allow me to merge PRs directly into trunk. Would such changes be reflected in our SVN code-base too? Is there any advantage to one approach over the other? Apologies if this has already been discussed at length before - I searched the mail archives but didn't come up with anything other than passing references to our GitHub repositories. Kind regards, Duncan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscribe@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-help@commons.apache.org
