Re: Git -my personal bias is to retain SVN because Git is not yet Windows-friendly, although there is at least one implementation that works somewhat on Windows.

If these steps are just lines in a shell command, it's all part of the pull - dev - push process. The JOSM development process normally doesn't include the killer advantage of distributed version control over SVN: branching and merging. The JOSM development hasn't typically branched, although there could be a small development on the v5 branch now if there are new killer bugs. _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
