MoEML Commits 10,000th Change to Repository

At 16h37 (UTC-8), on 25 July, 2016, we committed the 10,000th revision to our Subversion Repository. Everything we do is housed in a repository that tracks every change we make to the site. At the beginning of each work session, each of us checks out the repository. Throughout the day, we commit our revised files back to the repository. Doing so means we can roll back any file — or even the whole project — to an earlier version if necessary. It also means we can have multiple people working on MoEML simultaneously from any part of the world. We set up the repository on 19 October, 2011. The project was already 12 years old by then, but we started counting revisions at 17h10 that day. Predictably, our awesome Lead Programmer Martin Holmes committed the 1st and 10,000th revisions. Nerd out, Early Modern Londoners!
