That git-related article was old. Here are some links you may find solid enough: http://nubyonrails.com/articles/five-features-from-mercurial-that-would-make-git-suck-less http://blog.red-bean.com/sussman/?p=116

Hi all, there's been some discussion in various places, the IRC channel for instance to use some kins of version control system instead of having Alex laboriously, manually inserting changes. I just searched for a Mercurial version of GitHub and found http://bitbucket.org/plans/. PicoLisp is such a small repository that we can go free on either BitBucket or GitHub. Then I randomly ended up at this comparison page: http://www.rockstarprogrammer.org/post/2008/apr/06/differences-between-mercurial-and-git/ After reading that (which I recommend anyone who wants to chime in on this thread do) I realized that maybe Mercurial isn't the right way to go? It all depends on what we see happening in the future. I've never used Git (other than simply downloading code). If Alex will have the time to act as the guy who gets to decide what goes in and not, and wants superior control of that process then GitHub seems to be the way to go. If no one really will have that time and energy then maybe BitBucket is the way to go, I don't know, maybe GitHub will be a better choice either way. Maybe someone more knowledgeable could provide a more nuanced perspective as I'm not a power user of any VCS. /Henrik -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picol...@software-lab.de?subject=unsubscribe
