[codes02]

Is the difficulty in copying the development history from the private project to the public one a technical or human (ie: the imposed restrictions) issue? ie: Do you lack a way to move the history or do you lack the authorization to do so even after the season has begun?

In the case of a technical issue, using git's svn bridge makes it a straight forward task to publish public history (this would be as a git repo of course. It should be possible to use git to push commits from one svn repo to another, but it may be a bit more fiddly).

Out of curiosity, who imposes the restriction on releasing code prior to kickoff?
Also, is this restriction due to you having early knowledge of what the game is and concerns that the code might contain hints?

Thanks.
