So it's a lot of old, boring technology too, but still used because it just works and it's battle-tested. I studied and deployed SVN for my team 8 years ago, after using it as an user a lot. "Everybody" was already using git back then. SVN serves us well, we branch when needed and use trunk/release branches when needed (the merge hell myth is still around). For my team particularly, we don't see the need (effort) to migrate, although everybody has the usual github account/usage for other stuff. We keep our Subversion server, backups and administration pretty private, with no "external hosting" and the like. My two cents, Juan
