So, I don't want to make debate here of wether centralized is better than
distributed (because the point is moot), but I think its not a good
situation for the community to have a previously open door to DVCSs now
closed.
Having been battling with various projects that have decided that 'git is good'
or 'hg is best' ... I've been trying to live in the new world and failing. That
link is looking like a nice CURRENT overview of the situation although things
are still changing mainly for the good.
My problem until recently was that 'subrepo' management in DVCS has always been
playing catchup. Yesterday for the first time I checked out a 'super-project'
matching one of the composite builds provided on an original CVS repo! Still not
fully integrated into Eclipse, but hopefully even that will come with time. But
now I can 'clone' the half dozen different builds and manage them in parallel
with both github and bitbucket 'masters'.
I'm using Mercurial and TortoiseHg which almost work transparently between Linux
and Windows, and with hg-git access to the 'git is good' projects is also
transparent even on windows. Next step this weekend IS to tidy up the SVN setup
so that I have the PHP code locally mirrored as well ....
