Update 2014-09-03: There now is a perhaps better haproxy mirror on GitHub at https://github.com/haproxy/

This tracks the two GIT HaProxy-repositories stable and development within one single combined repository.

This way you can easily use diff, see commit graphs, etc. Example: https://github.com/hilbix/haproxy/branches

You can see this here as re-inventing the wheels, this time an improved variant with only a single corner. ;)

Rationale

Most mirrors are more or less manually updated. And the HaProxy upstream GIT server sometimes is a bit slow. Having an always near to current available mirror on GitHub seemed for me to be a good idea.

So I poked around in GitHub looking for some suitable mirrors, but was not able to finde one. Thanks to GIT it's easy to provide one myself.

As HaProxy is Free Software the most easy way was to put this repo on GitHub, too.

Notes

HaProxy is a marvellous piece of software, and if correctly used it can even save the day, without anybody noticing: HaProxy completely stays out of sight and does it's great job behind the scenes. This mirror here is meant to be helpful, but it is neither official nor endorsed by HaProxy's author Willy Tarreau; All left to say is, thank you for HaProxy.
