[llvm-dev] LLVM Releases page needs updating? (Still suggests using SVN)
Hi, I've noticed that http://releases.llvm.org/ still mentions that "Current" version of LLVM Projects should be retrieved through SVN. With the GitHub mirror now being considered a "source of truth" for readonly checkouts, would it be worth updating that page and referring people to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project instead? (Though my only concern being, currently there are no RO-only mirrors on GitHub for major projects since I presume majority of consumers will likely want to checkout LLVM, Clang/CFE and LLD, it may be worth mirroring them separately. I'm not sure how well Git handled subtree checkouts, personally I've not had the best experiences, while a RO mirror is a lot more straightforward) Thank you. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I've updated https://releases.llvm.org/ in http://llvm.org/r354269 but it can take a while to show up on the page due to caching. Thanks, Hans
