Question SmartDashboardFX source code access

Does anyone know where I could get a copy of the latest source for the new JavaFX SmartDashboard (or SFX or SmartDashboard 2.0 or whatever you want to call it)?

I know that all FIRST code used to be hosted on FIRST Forge, but I am pretty sure they are switching to TeamForge for all the latest code (such as WPILib for the roboRIO, Gazebo Simulator and the other projects).

The SmartDashboardFX project exists on both sites, but the last commit on FIRST Forge to the project is from August 2013, while the latest commit on TeamForge is from January 2014.

The problem is that I can get pull the code off of the svn repo on FIRST Forge, but not the git repo on TeamForge. The git repo uses ssh and uses public key authentication. I uploaded my public key to my account and I was successfully able to pull the RobotBuilder source from TeamForge, but not the SmartDashboardFX source.

I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a reason for not allowing teams to access the code, or is this a configuration mistake?

I know it is possible to make extensions without having the code, but I would like to see it to understand the inner workings of the dashboard better and to be able to fix bugs. Also I am interested in making it work with Java 8, which it currently doesn't support. I would rather work with the latest code than code that is half a year old.
