Here's an interesting article comparing SVK, monotone, darcs, Git, Mercurial, and Bazaar.
http://ldn.linuxfoundation.org/article/dvcs-round-one-system-rule-them-all-part-1 "Remains the fact that darcs is a nice and clean system, and has its small but devoted user base not without reason." Darcs (and SVK) are "not recommended", because the alternatives can all handle large repos, whereas darcs can not, and darcs' advantage in patch algebra isn't sufficient whereas the alternatives are good enough. The article also describes darcs' repo-is-a-branch-is-a-repo as inflexible compared to the competitors. This puzzles me, because I find this freedom *extremely* flexible. But I have not used any of the other systems, so I don't know what I'm missing out on. -- Tommy Pettersson <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
