Step in the right direction. I'm still waiting for

  git clone https://github.com/microsoft/windows.git

to happen

How much of a hipster are you?

I'm a hipster because I like open source and want more not-open-source things to be open source?

No, you're a hipster because you seem to think nothing is truly open until it's on git.

Is Windows source available under a permissive license somewhere else? I'll take that.

    git clone https://git01.codeplex.com/roslyn

Do you mean on github?

Yes, yes I did.

There are things other than Git. For example Mercurial.

You really think github can host windows huh? It will crumble and die.

it's not quite the same thing, however TFS does now talk Git... http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mvpawardprogram/archive/2013/11/13/g...
