For me the biggest value in having a mirror would be a backup location to clone FreeSWITCH in case the main repo is down. Not that it happens very often, it just always seems to happen at the very moment I’m doing something time sensitive and important ;)

I could certainly maintain my own mirror for that purpose, it just seems like a community mirror would solve the problem for everyone in one go.

If we didn’t want to do it via Github (which I can certainly understand given the issue duplication/etc), I’d vote for having it on a secondary server in the FreeSWITCH ecosystem.

I don’t see any value in adding a GitHub mirror.  Stash already has the capabilities that you would get from GitHub and allows for better workflow for the core development team, a GitHub mirror would just be another place we would have to monitor for bug reports and patches, that adds overhead to us but no value.

Hi,

I know that the freeswitch repo has some compatibility issues with GitHub, with the two multi-author commits made some time ago.

I recently was able to push a clone of freeswitch to GitHub by filing a ticket and asking them to disable the strict checking for those objects.

Now that there is a way to do so, it might be worth setting up a mirror of freeswitch to GitHub. Many projects that host their main git repo elsewhere still find value in keeping a GitHub mirror. I personally would find it useful. https://help.github.com/articles/about-github-mirrors/

It's just a thought, now that there is a way around the previous technical limitation.


Thanks,

Adam
