Dimitry Yemanov announced :

The project repository was migrated to GitHub:
https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/firebird

Please wait a few days for things to settle down, we need to update some
infrastructure. SVN repository is still accessible, but new
contributions are expected to be provided as pull requests at GitHub.

When creating a GitHub account, we suggest to add your SourceForge’s
email (username@users.sourceforge.net) as a secondary one to associate
your past contributions with your account.

I’m asking present contributors to create accounts there. If anyone
(including past contributors) wants your past commits to be
automatically linked to your GitHub account and be shown in the
statistics, please report your account name in this thread, or make sure
that your *.users.sourceforge.net email is added as a secondary one at
GitHub.
