I've been using Git more and more for Tomcat development and was wondering what folks thought about moving Tomcat to git. This isn't a formal proposal or a vote, I'm just trying to gather some views.
On the plus side: - it is much easier to have multiple issues in progress at the same time and switch between them - being able to work off-line but still commit is a huge benefit when working on a complex issue and you don't have internet access - merging between branches (assuming all supported branches were in a single repo) is simpler Neutral - we would need to agree some simple guidelines for how we used git - tooling seems equivalent to that available for svn (at for what I use anyway) On the down side: - there is much more potential to mess things up - cleaning up is potentially more complex - the disruption of the move - particularly if we want to move to a single git repo - could be significant Thoughts?
