The last I heard > the leading candiate is SVN/SVK. Do we need to worry too much about taking over the world in one day? Yes of course git is _the_ superior solution etc, but too many new users at once is always painful. I think you are more likely to win letting them convert over to SVN. >From there people naturally start using git mirrors from the SVN trunk.

I am confident with time the project will migrate, but I am happy other git users are happy all without it being the tool of choice. -apw - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
