It seems to be common knowledge that git is a heck of a lot faster than CVS at most operations, but I'd like to do a little evangelizing and I can't seem to find a benchmark to support that claim.
It _will_ be a bit of an apple-to-oranges comparison, but you could use a few large-ish projects that have a published GIT gateway. Measure time and bw use of - cvs co vs git clone - cvs status vs git status - cvs update vs git pull - cvs log (at top level) vs git log - cvs log path/to/file vs git log path/to/file I would suggest - Moodle (for which I maintain an http-fetchable repo at http://git.catalyst.net.nz/git/moodler2.git ) - PostgreSQL (repo.or.cz hosts a repo) cheers m - 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
