Well, Qt4 it's completely different from Qt3, porting it's a nice way to say rewrite. So moving patches between the two branches it's very difficult already now and it will be impossible in a near future not because of development forking, but because of API. This means two different and *not mergeable* branches. Being not mergeable they lose the main motivation to be in the same repository IMHO. Also I would like to continue to support and improve the stable and proven Qt3 version on kernel.org that is and will be the main version. Perhaps when qgit4 will be stable enough I will ask to move to kernel.org but now, for easier development I asked to Pasky, that kindly accepted, to host this repo.
