Although I can not say for sure. It appears to me, they are trying to do a better job at merging from distributed branches
Thanks for the memory jog. Yes i remember reading an interview with linus when he referred to the difficulty of using CVS on a
distributed build and that was a prime motivator for git. Now what about the others? Are they also primarily aimed at distributed builds? Renaming files and folders should not be a big problem for any VCS, if you freeze/recreate the tree the folder names should be whatever they were at freeze. (The only issue is if you want to pull up version -N of a file and its history stops at version -(N+3) and you then need to pull up version (-3) of the old file and don't know its name! - bad commenting and history documentation, but not unknown. But the tool can do it, its only the management that's faulty! :-) -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
