Maybe it's a rather psychological barrier, maybe branches are no longer complicated things with Git, but the "when used to it" is IMO the point: people not used to it will be scared by 5...60 branches. > Second, does that mean that the less skilled developers are only > allowed to do small things and refrain from the larger features because > they don't know how to use the branches ? At least, they would not have to learn branches even for small features. ... > I saw that even a lot of small commits, were either corrected adjusted > etc. several times. Do I undestand right, that with Git it would be possible to do this corrections/adjustments without spoiling the history -- also if no branches are used? Then, moving to Git would be helpfull even without changing the rest of the workflow. Günter
