All good times come to an end, bad times come to an end also as it seems. With git.cern.ch and their gitolite installation surely being the latter we are not unhappy to finally have a reason to migrate to gitlab.
But with all good things come bad things, as this means work! Not only for us, but also for the users - possibly for you. To make this as seamless as possible, heres a quick migration guide.
A quick migration guide:
login at gitlab.cern.ch
send us an email with your gitlab username
re-clone the repository
It is entirely possible to continue to use your repository by just adding the new remote via git add remote, but as its complicated we do not recommend using this unless you know git:
Monte carlo without reconstruction is booooring :)

Today we decided to move the HEPGen++ homepage to this site as well. Since the two projects are entangled so deeply already this seems like a natural step for us.
In the future you will also find news and documentation for HEPGen++, as well as downloads on this site.
