[NeXus-tech] transition to GIT for definitions and documentation

[Campbell, Stuart I.]

Hi Eugen,

The technical details of transferring are trivial, you could always use
git-svn if you want to use git locally.

But, this raises a potential bigger question, if we were to move to git,
why not consider moving wholesale to something like github ?  We could
move from trac to github issues (I've been playing with migrating tickets
for a different project).

It feels like there is a critical mass of companies and projects that are
hosted on github - maybe we should be ? :-)

Cheers
Stu
