But it's only hard because it would take some amount of time to perform. The process of doing so isn't that complex.

So here it is: apps/e: 8 modifications proto/etk: 8 modifications libs/ewl: 6 modifications proto/estickies: 6 modifications apps/entrance: 4 modifications proto/emphasis: 4 modifications apps/elicit: 2 modifications apps/e_utils: 1 modification libs/edje: 1 modification That's it. Now how many modification did the source code itself receive during this period? > at this point - why bother with git at all. just ake tarball snaps. much less > effort. Things would get up to 7 times faster then they are now, it's a lot easier to make multiple repositories, you don't have to mess with .cvsignore, and because it sends compressed data over the network you use up less bandwidth (if that's of any concern). It's a lot easier to mirror too. > > though git seems nice - i am beginning to think its not going to solve a lot. > we > need to really just provide alternate mechanisms to get the code and moe > anoncvs mirros i think. > At this point I doubt you guys agree with my view. So, my opinion is probably wrong and this is just a case of me being hard-headed. It would take about a week to get everything into place and there are probably many easier ways to get the same results.
