Before I started contributing to git in its early weeks, I staged my own changes to my day-job project in darcs to trickle them in to the company's central repository (I was sufficiently faster than other members of the project and I had to pace myself). It would have been much more difficult for me to grasp the basic concepts of how "distributed development" process works, if I did not have an exposure to Darcs before I started, especially because I never used BK. - 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
