Re: [git-users] Will GIT allow me to do this?? show tag history and where it was pinned on to which branch in the past

thanks Konstantin & Dale for your detail reply, much appreciated. I had to re-read the post several times as git is new to me and not familiar with the commands. But it's now clear the direction that I will take. Specifically, I will setup a main codebase branch and individual branches which

Re: [git-users] Is Git for me?

Yes having a version tracking system set up can serve as a recovery tool in the event of data loss, but other backup strategies have more to offer. Git as backup is likely to demand ever growing space requirements as it lacks pruning and rotation schedules. Also it depends on the user to actively

Re: [git-users] Is Git for me?

I think git is great for backup. Here's why: With svn etc there is a central server. If that fails, then you are screwed. With git, all the clones have exactly the same data, including history etc. There is no master except by convention. If the master server dies, then just repopulate it from a
