people, but the way way you generalize it, it sounds that would be an

I'm not starting this again.... :-)
very sad... :)
And if I understand this correct, then GIT downloads *every*
intermediate version to your PC, every time you upgrade (otherwise, how
can they already be there). That to me would be a disadvantage, I may
never need that data.
Read the "Git Mirrors" page on the Lazarus wiki:
....
Even though you end up with every revision, Git's compression is clearly
*much* better than SubVersion's. The WHOLE history of Lazarus is a 57MB
download (and unpacks to 144MB on the hard drive). Compare that to a
SINGLE trunk revision using SubVersion which equals to around 320MB. The
Git repository is much smaller, no matter how you look at it. You get
more bang for you buck! ;-)
So it eats more CPU to do the work?
Anyway it doesn't matter, It was for the arguments sake only.
Best Regards
Martin
