 Obtaining Commit Access
 -----------------------
 
+New Contributors
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 We grant commit access to contributors with a track record of submitting high
 quality patches.  If you would like commit access, please send an email to
-`Chris <mailto:clattner at llvm.org>`_ with the following information:
-
-#. The user name you want to commit with, e.g. "hacker".
-
-#. The full name and email address you want message to llvm-commits to come
-   from, e.g. "J. Random Hacker <hacker at yoyodyne.com>".
-
-#. A "password hash" of the password you want to use, e.g. "``2ACR96qjUqsyM``".
-   Note that you don't ever tell us what your password is; you just give it to
-   us in an encrypted form.  To get this, run "``htpasswd``" (a utility that
-   comes with apache) in *crypt* mode (often enabled with "``-d``"), or find a web
-   page that will do it for you.  Note that our system does not work with MD5
-   hashes.  These are significantly longer than a crypt hash - e.g.
-   "``$apr1$vea6bBV2$Z8IFx.AfeD8LhqlZFqJer0``", we only accept the shorter crypt hash.
-
-Once you've been granted commit access, you should be able to check out an LLVM
-tree with an SVN URL of "https://username@llvm.org/..." instead of the normal
-anonymous URL of "http://llvm.org/...".  The first time you commit you'll have
-to type in your password.  Note that you may get a warning from SVN about an
-untrusted key; you can ignore this.  To verify that your commit access works,
-please do a test commit (e.g. change a comment or add a blank line).  Your first
-commit to a repository may require the autogenerated email to be approved by a
-moderator of the mailing list.

-Obtaining Commit Access to the GitHub Repository
-------------------------------------------------
-We are currently in the process of migrating the project's source code from SVN
-to a git repository on GitHub.  We are maintaining a file in SVN to map
-SVN usernames to GitHub usernames, so we can automatically grant access to
-existing committers when we complete the migration to GitHub.  In order to
-request commit access, check out the github-usernames.txt file in meta/trunk and
-add a line in the form of $SVN_USERNAME:$GITHUB_USERNAME and commit it.  For
-example:
-
-.. code:: console
-
-  mkdir tmp-llvm-svn
-  cd tmp-llvm-svn
-  svn co https://$SVN_USERNAME@llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/meta/trunk
-  echo "$SVN_USERNAME:$GITHUB_USERNAME" >> trunk/github-usernames.txt
-  cd trunk
-  svn commit -m "Request commit access for $SVN_USERNAME"
