I've been playing with Gnumeric under git. -rw-rw-r-- 1 welinder research 270M Nov 5 09:46 gnumeric/.git/objects/pack/pack-91291de5477ddd06545b052460239b3dae89ad72.pack 270M is about 40% of the cvs repository size. Given compression I would have expected bigger savings. Conversion isn't perfect, probably because the cvs tree has seen some hacking over the years. (I am not posting the URL because I don't want to kill gnome.org.) We haven't switched yet, but I expect that we will. We are looking for (in no particular order): 1. Offline history. 2. Patch sets and other things that'll make it easier to maintain more than one branch. In other words, pretty-much anything but cvs will fit the bill, :-./ M. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Sun Jan 29 13:15:37 2006
