Welcome to a messy world...
As a lot of members here, I was using svn to checkout a particular version of the sources to apply patchs found in this forum and personal patchs, but now it seems to be impossible with this new source manager as we do not know the version we get.
As said before in this topic, is it possible to maintain both svn ang git repository?
I do not blame dev for changing repository as maybe it's easier for them, but most of other devs will be lost (as I am actually).
Thank you for your great job but please try to think about us poor windows devs.
