CVS Replacements

Recently I was made aware of several projects which aim to be a better CVS: 1. Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ 2. BitKeeper - http://www.bitkeeper.com/ 3. Arch - http://www.regexps.com/#arch It seems that BK and Arch are distributed while Subversion is not. Also, I'm not

Even though off-topic (as was the whole of this thread), I can't stop myself to say a few things: 1. The first, and most important: I was subscribed to lkml for a few weeks, and quickly unsubscribed. I do read every issue of Kernel Traffic (http://kt.zork.net), since issue 1 (three years ago), an

Like I said, I now also uses CVS for preparing my SICP homework, which consists of very small Scheme programs, and a

Some re-thoughts (was: Re: The Great Kernel CVS Mutiny)

After writing my previous message about the subject, I have other thoughts. The problem, which triggered the mutiny discussions, is the fact that Linus was not always prompt in accepting bugfix patches. So some subsystems remained buggy (even if there was no dispute which bugfix patch to accept)
