Orchard's Source Moving To Git

By the end of July, we’ll be moving the Orchard sources hosted on CodePlex from a Mercurial repository to a Git repository. This won’t impact or affect Orchard's users, but Orchard's contributors might need to act before this move.

Forks
All of the current forks on the CodePlex website relative to Orchard will be deleted as part of this move. If you have forked Orchard, and you need to keep that fork, you can clone the fork and keep it locally or you can find somewhere else to push it. Alternatively we are doing a backup of all of them as of today's state, which you can request later on if you were not able to clone it in time. We will keep this backup for a few months only.

Pull Requests
The Orchard team will decline all the currently active pull requests before we move to Git. The result of this action is that you will receive a notification, and will have to recreate it once we have completed the move. We will not be accepting any new pull requests until this move is complete. Please wait to initiate new pull requests until that time.

Commit History
Orchard's commit history will be preserved. Including branches. If you’ve contributed to Orchard, your contributions will still be included in the commit history.

CodePlex Project
All other areas of the Orchard CodePlex project (the URL, issues, discussions, etc.) will remain as they are.
