[Scons-dev] SCons moves to GitHub! https://github.com/SConsProject/scons

[anatoly techtonik]

I pushed my repository to https://github.com/techtonik/sconsize
and now git clone downloads only 9 Mb instead of 100 Mb,

    $ git clone https://github.com/techtonik/sconsize
    ...
    Receiving objects: 100% (50034/50034), 9.08 MiB | 1.48 MiB/s, done.

Cloning official repo still takes 10 times longer.

    $ git clone https://github.com/SConsProject/scons
    ...
    Receiving objects: 100% (51561/51561), 109.12 MiB | 1.06 MiB/s, done.
