Transition of CABLE to git and GitHub

Future of the SVN repository

Once the transition is completed, we need to ensure:

  • users move to the git repository quickly
  • it is clear the SVN repository is not to be used anymore

We will need to keep the SVN repository for some time after the transition to GitHub, during that time, it would be good if the access could be restricted with only read access rights.

We will need to keep the SVN repository accessible in some form for 7 years as researchers may have referenced this repository in their published papers. Some more investigation is required to decide what is needed here.
