We have decided to keep the current history and structure in CVS, and create a new Git repository. Code will be committed to the Git repository as it is cleaned up for PHP 5 and Horde 4.
This project is to determine what the next generation of the Horde will use to store and organize source code.
Some initial work has been done with Git and SVN conversions of the current CVS repository.
* Browseable by ChoraToday checking out a Horde app within an existing Horde checkout works fine. This includes making single-commit changes across applications.
Naturally no matter what we choose Chora support will either be added or will improve. However if it is already supported by Chora all the better.

I added a git submodule for every horde module inside the horde/horde
repository. Now you can do:
git clone git://git.koch.ro/git/horde/horde cd horde git submodule init foreach modules as MODULE // Only those you want to use git submodule update $MODULE // checks out the module
Now there are some more things[1] to think about when actually developing, but
that's one way it could be done.

Alternative distributed versioning control system.
While all Horde developers are interested in this project's final recommendation the following people have done work toward making a decision on the next SCM to be used for Horde:
| SCM | Full (Server) Repository Size | Branch Checkout |
|---|---|---|
| CVS | 51MB | 7MB |
| SVN | 31MB | 16MB |
| git* | 18MB | 18MB |
| SCM | Full (Server) Repository Size | Branch Checkout |
|---|---|---|
| CVS | 736KB | 700KB |
| SVN | 1.7MB | |
| Mercurial | 724KB |
