as somehow who has suffered from the many many quirks of svn --- and was a firm
disbeliever in git when sean "evangelized" it in the IBM opensim community way
back when --- i've since come to LOVE git. sure it's different (but then cars
are different to horse-drawn coaches :-) and, yes, i can sympathize with the
"release naming issue" --- but i've to say, it's much more user friendly because
i as a user of it have considerable less problems with it and have in fact more
freedom to work MY workflow instead of having to bow to SVN.
just my CHF 0.02 ;-)
