Showcasing where git is better then subversion
Aside for the funny name, git is superior to subversion. It's hard migrating an organizations from subversion to git. Such migration requires training and changing work flows.
As a new comer and a developer with non leading role, I have no say what so ever on such matters. But I have git-svn to save me.
Today, I ran a git pull on my open source project's directory, and I had a pleasant surprise, which I completely forgot after working for a few weeks directly with subversion:
[oz123@Debian ~]$ cd Software/pwman3/
[oz123@Debian pwman3]$ git pull

[oz123@Server Project]$ svn up
At revision 2495.
[oz123@Server Project]$You see my point right? Subversion is output quite sparse!
Yes, there is a combination of commands that let's one see the overview, but
git just enforces seeing it. Unless of course, you suppress the output.
You know more such little differences? Please share them with me. I will be happy to create a collection of these!
