We're using git internally at galois now for a lot of things, but only on unicies and macs. Its like a fast darcs, with a less simple interface. A lot faster. It would be worth doing a bit of testing with various systems on windows -- find out which ones can actually import the ghc history, for example, and work with it. > Personally, I like the fact that all the Haskell libraries have > standardised on darcs, since it makes it much easier to do everything > in one tool.

The rest of the community wouldn't move away from darcs for all the small projects. -- Don _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
