The changes must then be pulled into the source repository by the project maintainer. This model reduces the amount of friction for new contributors and is popular with open source projects because it allows people to work independently without upfront coordination. The Shared Repository Model is more prevalent with small teams and organizations collaborating on private projects.

So we are able to commit in this repository but the administration of this project must be done with yacs account (like adding new collaborators). This account could be shared by trusted members. contributing to contribute, everyone can register on github, and fork the project by pressing one button. that will be I think the way we will contribute ... suite Alexis Raimbault Announcements Sun, 12 Sep 2010 21:23:39 GMT https://yacs.fr/https://yacs.fr/section-570-announcements#_discussion 0 https://yacs.fr/comments/post.php/article/7353 https://yacs.fr/comments/feed.php/article/7353 https://yacs.fr/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A7353 https://yacs.fr/article-7282-proposal-of-a-policy-for-managing-yacs-sources-with-git https://yacs.fr/article-7282-proposal-of-a-policy-for-managing-yacs-sources-with-git where to host ? what branches ? what workflow ?   Alexis Raimbault Announcements Wed, 30 Jun 2010 15:22:19 GMT https://yacs.fr/https://yacs.fr/section-570-announcements#_discussion 2 https://yacs.fr/comments/post.php/article/7282 https://yacs.fr/comments/feed.php/article/7282 https://yacs.fr/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A7282 https://yacs.fr/article-7147-choosing-a-workflow https://yacs.fr/article-7147-choosing-a-workflow there are differents way to collaborate with GIT.

At the moment yacs is distributed mainly through archive downloads, and contributions are made by uploading files to web pages at www.yacs.fr. These mechanisms have proven quite efficient to spread the software to end users. However, downloads and uploads are painful to most software developers, and we have to facilitate collaboration across contributors. Some challenges that this group is aiming to address: - provide early access to on-going changes (to not wait until final release), - facilite the integration of small ... suite Bernard Paques Announcements Thu, 01 Apr 2010 21:41:39 GMT https://yacs.fr/https://yacs.fr/section-570-announcements#_discussion 0 https://yacs.fr/comments/post.php/article/7024 https://yacs.fr/comments/feed.php/article/7024 https://yacs.fr/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A7024 https://yacs.fr/article-7026-why-do-we-speak-english-in-this-group https://yacs.fr/article-7026-why-do-we-speak-english-in-this-group The core team that initiated the yacs project some time ago is massively speaking French, and French is still the most used language within the yacs community. However, when it comes to software development the common language between developers is English. More specifically, most common tools and best practices related to source code management are coming either from U.K. or from U.S.A. That's a fact!
