Will there be an SVN mirror?

• Github automatically provides an SVN mirror of repositories. Hercules is available with:

• svn checkout http://svn.github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git 

   
• We won't officially work to support many branches or features in SVN, but it should remain in-sync with the latest stable release, based on master branch in git.

1. TortoiseGit (the menu) -> Switch/Checkout -> select 'Commit' and in the field enter the hash you want to rollback to.

2. TortoiseGit (the menu) -> Log Messages -> in the top right there is a search field, type whatever you want and hit enter/return.
