Yeah, I think I am -0 as well. While I am open to the idea of switching fully to git I do like something about that fact that we have the subversion repository as the "canonical" representation. I have definitely shot myself in the foot with branches and rebasing, etc...in git... having the extra l

A "silent" question here. Justin gave me a crash course in git and it seems that git is superior to svn. I really start liking it. On the other side, working with git and an svn repository seems to be complicated. With geotools 8 and geoserver 2.2 we switch to SDK6, why not switching to a

I am actually just in the process of switching to this setup as well, one repo, rather than multiple per branch. The reason being to be able to use cherry picking. I find the git svn clone very tricky as well. It seems that it can easily error out depending on what revision you a referencing ... th

The git+svn approach seems too much for NetBeans. It recognizes the project as a subversion checkout but is blind to the git repo within it. Michael -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.n

Thanks Jody, that's interesting. I've got the "git+svn" structure set up and will let you know how it goes with the next batch of gt-swing hacking. I suspect I'll be doing a fair bit of squash-merging of my git micro-commits when preparing svn commits. Michael On 10 November 2011 16:58, Jody Gar

I am kind of with Justin in that I have two separate git-svn clones. One for trunk and another for 2.7.x. Setting up git-svn to work with the svn branches was too difficult for geotools; not because of the large projects; but because we have hand edited our svn repository over time and there a
