I've heard a lot of people express a preference for git over svn. What do
people think about the prospect of using git (presumably on github) rather
than Apache's svn servers for Accumulo? Would this be compatible with the
other Apache infrastructure we would like to use (jira, confluence, etc.)?
Has any other Apache project gone this route?

Personally, I like to use git for my development.

I know that other projects in apache commit to a main svn, but have a branch
git that people can pull from. See
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/HowToContribute where they mention that
they have an apache git that mirrors the svn.

The project must use Apache svn as the definitive repository if you
want to be at Apache. You get a git mirror, and some day there's a
plot to allow full git, but some day is not today.

Github as a primary reference is right out.

Many of us make good use of git-svn at this point, infrastructure
provides git repos to clone that are already tuned for that.

With a little more research, it looks like the git mirror gives us the best
of both worlds anyway. Therefore, I declare this question moot.

With a nod to git-svn for coolness.
