[mylyn-dev] git migration

Hi,

after the positive experiences of managing the Mylyn Builds, Docs and
Reviews sources in Git I would like to pursue a migration to Git for
the remaining Mylyn sub-projects Mylyn Commons, Context, Incubator,
Tasks and Versions that are still hosted in CVS.

My sense is that major concerns have been addressed over the past
couple of month and Git has significant advantages over CVS making a
migration worth the effort:

* EGit has reached it's 1.0 release with Indigo and supports everyday
workflows from the IDE reasonably well
* The EGit Mylyn integration generates commit message and is being
improved steadily
* Tycho supports building from Git well

My plan is to move this forward in July after the Indigo release.
Please comment on bug 329561 if you have any concerns or questions. Of
course I would also appreciate positive feedback if you are in favor
of the proposal :).
