I wasn't talking about the svn clone, was talking about the sync policy "will be synch'ed one time at day"... That in combination with Git, make difficult to be "out of the box" useful. the use of cygwin git is a bit problematic, and sometimes eol styles mixes don't like the different interpreters (unix eol against windows eol) with ruby-mswin32 and ruby cygwin. > With a Subversion repository, you can choose between Subversion as a > client or Git as a client (yes, it's actually a local clone of the > repository, but a client of the main svn repo as well). > > http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html > http://blog.nbwd.co.uk/2007/8/16/using-git-for-rails-development > Again, was talking about that the git-to-svn sync. > Mercurial is a great system.

Just an idea, not my religion. :) Bazaar also allow you repositories that share revision information between branches. I use it to patch upstream projects until they commit the fixes I sent to them :-) The git/mercurial over svn without a proper sync solution will be a problem for those users using script/plugin to install and use rspec on Rails applications -- since rails is highly integrated with svn for these commands. Anyway, just my comments :-) -- Luis Lavena Multimedia systems - Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.
