If the few developers are efficient and responsive due to their choice of programming language, the net result might still work out fine. But it might make the the project more susceptible to discontinuation if existing developers can't sustain their involvement for some reason. On the other hand, code being inscrutable because of not being expressible well in a more common language also carries its dangers. > 26.

There is only man-page level documentation for the various commands comprising it, but the overall design is just "this is just like patch sets in ..." uh, Monotone? Don't remember which it was. Anyway, the docs were quite useless to me as someone who did _not_ previously use the system mentioned as reference. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum - 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
