I'm not sure what your reasons were but from my POV (as someone who used to build on Windows from time to time), the two problems were: 1) svn was only used for this while we had migrated to hg 2) svn is darn slow, which neither hg nor git (especially with shallow clones, see "git clone --depth 1") are I don't think the annoyance itself of having to install git is much to worry about, since 1) it's a one time cost 2) it's quite easy 3) many developers or packagers are bound to already use git for other projects. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30450> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
