Andreas,

While what you say is likely true, what occurs with your request is
fragmentation of the information. That said, I think the majority of
the information you seek is available in the gentoo-scm archives. From
what I know about this, I think the issue is time and the ancillary
utilities, like repoman, that will need to be updated. Beyond that
documentation is required.

See this thread for more info.

I know we are all pretty excited to migrate to git, but there is
little reason to rush something this monumental. It seems far better
to take the time to get it absolutely correct, technically (the best
kind), the first time.

I am certain, in any case, that your interest and involvement in this
effort would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Matthew
