Carlos, I don't get it. Mike and I work together, so we need to have the same codebase. When I have made a change that Mike needs to include in his source, in git I do a 'push', in SVN I do a 'commit'. To stay up to date with my code, Mike needs to do a 'pull' in git ('update' in SVN). What's different?
