We're happy to announce Geany just switched from Subversion to Git as
the Version Control System used for source code management.  The primary
source repository also moved from SourceForge to GitHub [1].

We think and hope this will make future development easier for everybody
and improve collaboration with the community.

The new Git repository can be found here :
http://github.com/geany/geany. Of course the mirror on geany.org [2] is
still available and now mirrors the official Git repository as well as
does the repo.or.cz mirror [3].  You can follow the updated instructions
on the Git page [4] to clone the new repository or fork it on GitHub [5].

A backup of the old SVN repository can still be found at
http://download.geany.org/svn_backup/geany/ for anybody interested.

Finally, we'd like to thank Jiří Techet for the wonderful work he did on
converting the SVN repository to Git, and Matthew Brush for the great
help on setting up the GitHub repository.  Thank you guys!


Best regards,
Colomban
