It is undeniable that git - which I love and use every day, is much more complicated on z/OS because of EBCDIC, access methods, records and block sizes.
It's not complicated Rene. There are UNIX commands that make it snack! Company policy says we need to use Git. Some projects still use MVS data sets so we sync to the file system. You would be surprised what products you use every day that are hosted and built from the z/OS UNIX file system and managed by Git. File tagging makes EBCDIC a non issue and block sizes and records are nothing more than I/O methods of the utilities that do the sync. The most compelling Git advocates where I work are some of our best mainframe engineers who have witnessed it's capabilities such as merging.
