Agreed, the most you have to explain right now is how to run "svn diff", i.e saying: "Run git diff from the branch you created to the branch you have the upstream repo in" raises the barrier to contribute. But I wouldn't compare it to a 747; Maybe crossing the Ocean without compass neither GPS ;) > -- I've been quite happy with the handful of developers whose git > branches I'm tracking. "quite" means you don't like commits like "Ups forgot that", "Argh, missed that one" in remote branches? They're meaningfull! :) -- http://www.marcfargas.com - will be finished someday. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
