Better Version Control (Distributed) - Minimum impact on sources - always possible to update
- by Olav
I am f...fed up with Subversion. Need a version control that:
Can be used without affecting the sources with embedded files (like the Subversion .svn-directories), or having to check in and then check out (If you want to version control live web-site files for example).
It should always be possible to bring the repository quickly up to date whatever I have done (Without resolving conflicts or adding files first etc.)
Ideally it should be possible to merge repositories starting out as separate.
I thing it should be a distributed one, I think GIT is the Lingua Franca, but there is also Mercurial and Bazaar, which should have some advantages since they exist :-)
