Because "wait and see" doesn't provide any useful information to us, or the rest of KDE. Only by trying it out will we be able to get a really good feel if it will work for us or not. Kopete's experience can (and should!) be used as INPUT to the discussion around KDE and Gitorious as a whole. Anyway... +1 for git. I convinced my work to give it a try for a new project, and it's been so much better than svn. I'm using it now extensively at work and at home. Git, and especially Stacked Git, make my life so much easier when managing lots of ongoing changes. I'd like to take a moment to point out Stacked Git (or StGIT), because I haven't seen anything like it from the other DVCSes. (To be fair, I haven't looked that hard.) It allows you to have series of patches, stored as commits on Git branches, which you can edit, reorder, merge, split, etc. to your heart's content before you submit them. This allows you to generate a clear, logical history that's (mostly-)free of "oops, fix typo [or whatever] in my previous commit". (I contribute very rarely to Kopete, mostly due to lack of time, but Git in particular, over and above other DVCSes, would make it easier for me to do so.) -- Josh _______________________________________________ kopete-devel mailing list kopete-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kopete-devel
