Git or SVN

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE THE LAST DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS.

There's a discussion? I thought Git's superiority was too blatantly obvious to allow any sort of debate.

.svn

Use darcs. When you do a record for a patch, it lets you select which modifications in your files to add to the patch. Quite nifty.

git add --interactive
patch

That's cool. The only difference that I have heard of between darcs and git is that darcs doesn't scale as well as git. But I have yet to have a complex enough project to really care about anything other than what I have stated in my previous message.

Too bad darcs is slow as fuck.

I've used mercurial for a while now. Has anyone here used both that and git to the level of actually having a reasonable opinion about how they compare (that doesn't include googling)?

darcs is really cool because it has transactional commits and the metadata never becomes corrupted.

and doesn't afraid of anything

MAYBE THERE'S A FUCKING REASON.

Well, I watched a video of Linux Tarballs giving a talk on Git. When talking about the competition, he essentially said Hg is pretty much the equal of Git, just with a different model (Hg's focus on files versus Git's focus on content).

>>12
I think we have all watched that. I agreed with most of his points but the constant attempt at humour (feigned arrogance and insults) wasn't really necessary or compelling.

To add to your question, if I may, it might be a good idea to link to existing projects that one is working on, as an example of using that particular source management system. It's fair enough saying "this was really slow/fast for me" but unfortunately your word doesn't count for much, Anonymous.

i don't use any of them, it's all up here *points to head*

>>6
concur.  Don't you pissheads know about monotone yet?

Source control is for weaklings who need a team or who consider backtracking.

Monotone? It uses SQLite. 'nuff said.

>>17
And? SQLite is fine for systems that don't need all the features of a heavy RDBMS but could benefit from the flexibility of SQL. It's stable, fairly quick, doesn't require installing and running a daemon, and supports a reasonable subset of the SQL standard -- including triggers, which even MySQL doesn't support properly.

SQLITE IS FAST BECAUSE IT HAS NO FEATURES AND IT HAS LITE IN THE NAME

I'M DAVID AXMARK
SON OF A BITCH SQLITE
SQLITE IS PIG
DO YOU WANT REFERENTIAL INTEGRITY?
DO YOU WANT DAEMON PROCESS?
SQLITE IS PIG DISGUSTING
D. RICHARD HIPP IS A MURDERER
FUCKING SQLITE

    Again, blatant nonsense is posted by a clueless minion !
Your ability to make incomprehensible posts truely amazes me.
If English was a programming language you'd win IOECC !

    ``There are cases when a person reads some argument,
which is obviously wrong, yet accepts the argument and the
conclusion. In many cases there is a reason for it: the person
already believes in the conclusion, or wants the conclusion
to be true, or maybe they are simply not interested enough
to bother to think about it. However, in some cases there
is no apparent reason for this acceptance, and the blatant
nonsense effect explains some of these cases.

    For the Blatant nonsense effect, the reader{1} must have
some respect towards the writer. This may be based on the
credentials of the writer, the context of the text (e.g. a
respected journal), or simply on the (reasonable) belief that
anybody that can write fluently about a complex phenomenon
is a reasonably good thinker.''

    I am faithful to you, >>20. I have many hopes that these
emotional equilibriums will fade and (hopefully !) disappear
once and for ever.

    This behavior is maladaptive for such forum. I believe
I do speak for the rest of us folks when I say that your posts
are very disturbing and characterised by voluntary retardation.

    Oh dear Lord, I am not responsible for my acts if i rest
my view upon such banal post once more in the near future.
Please forgive me for I am nowhere near perfection.

Spaces before punctuation piss me off.

>>22
That isn't punctuation. It's a factorial operator.

"Again, blatant nonsense is posted by a clueless minion !" is equivalent to "Again, blatant nonsense is posted by a clueless minion" ! (order of operations) and resolves to;

(Again, blatant nonsense is posted by a clueless minion)(blatant nonsense is posted by a clueless minion)(nonsense is posted by a clueless minion)(is posted by a clueless minion)(posted by a clueless minion)(by a clueless minion)(a clueless minion)(clueless minion)(minion)
