Thanks for the informative response. It helped but I'm still slightly confused by git - I think I need to play around with it a bit more to understand and get more familiar with the concepts... Purely from an initial usage point of view though, for me at least, the bzr output needed no explanation which I think is indicative of a good user interface whereas the git was not so clear or obvious - there must be room for improvement in git's user friendliness here surely. But that might just be because I am clueless when it comes to the way git works and the concepts it uses ;-) Nick - 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
