There are some conditions associated with using Coverity Scan [2]. The
one thing that jumps out is that our relationship with RedHat might be

They will. #7 won't fly due to the buyout license clause.
Would you like me to enquire anyway?
There have been a few hints on this list about a possible move from CVS
to git. If such a move were on the cards then that should probably
happen first - I wouldn't want the nugatory effort of getting this
working from CVS only to have to change it almost immediately.
Yeah, I'm n ot exactly looking forward to it since I'm very familiar
with CVS or SVN, but have nothing but trouble with git. But since
everybody else is so very happy with git, I guess I'll have to adapt.
Teeth-gnashingly.
It might help ease your pain knowing that you can use github with a svn
client (to a limited extent):
