I think this is missing the point, but just for completeness, 1) is not necessary for frequent contributors, as you can "alias" a remote repo. Walter can do something like: git remote add don URL_FOR_DON # once git pull don BRANCH 5bis was covered by the other part of the e-mail. The ideal would be that Walter give enough feedback to let contributors narrow that 90% to nothing with enough time. Even more, as more people get expertise, other people could do the patch reviewing/feedback, so the final patch that Walter pull at the end don't take any Walter's attention. But again, this is independent of the VCS. > I'm not trying to argue for/against svn/git. I just want to ensure a > balanced presentation of facts. Excellent.
