#5899 assigned enhancement

Allow theme updates via SVN

Description

As mentioned in the recent results of the Theme Upload survey we're going to open up SVN commit for theme authors to update themes.

This will (at least initially) have certain restrictions on the format of the commits by Theme Authors, so as to keep the changes required to the Theme Directory to a minimum and avoid disruption for authors.

This is a tracking ticket for the changes needed on WordPress.org for this.

For general discussion and feedback related to this project, please kindly keep the discussion on https://make.wordpress.org/themes/2021/09/13/theme-upload-survey-results-next-steps/ so as to keep all feedback in a single centralised location. Issues that arise due to changes in this ticket can be logged here comment, or if this ticket is closed, as a new meta ticket.
