Re: [git-users] git.for solo developer

Then I must make the following question:
Can Netbeans IDE be used together with git?

Has anyone done it?

I mean is it possible from a technical point of view?
Netbeans is invaluable to me when it comes to development

 Dmitris: all my work is solo and I love git. The git command line is (for
 me) non-intuitive and inconsistent, but the ease of making ad hoc branches
 to try some ideas, and then abandon or merge is unrivaled.

Of course.

 I am developing a web app alone-no other developers.

I'm in the same situation.
In the past I used Subversion, then Mercurial and now I'm starting to
use Git.

First of all, a DVCS is much more flexible, compared to traditional VCS.
Just think about the case when you develop some common code in a
separate library, and you want to release it under an open source license.

With a DVCS sharing it is not a problem.
In the past there was not even support for mirroring a Subversion
repository...

Another useful feature of git (and mercurial) is the ability to amend a
commit (and I use it a lot!).

Compared to Mercurial one critical benefit of Git is easy branch support.
I suggest you to read the Pro Git book, and compare it with the
Mercurial book and the Subversion book (all available free online and as
a PDF).

Working in topic branches really change your way of working.
With Mercurial usually I ended up in chaos, when I was working on
multiple things at once.
