Good! That was my experience too, BTW -- SVN was a genuine improvement over CVS, and I was productive with it the first hour. There are "tricks" you'll learn too (or already have); for example, if you make a bunch of changes in a local checkout, and have to drop it for a while, it's easy and fast to create an SVN branch with those changes despite that you didn't plan on it from the start (create a new branch in the repository; `svn switch` to it locally, which leaves your local changes alone; then commit). > Also, I think it is a nice plus that our choosing SVN means that others > can choose SVK and get the benefits of a distributed rcs without us > having to do anything extra to support it.

Too new-fashioned for me, although I can see how it might appeal to kids ;-) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
