Actually it's a little academic ... I prefer TortoiseHg as a client which bridges nicely with BeyondCompare for two and three way manual merges. Working into git is just transparent on most areas ( except subrepo/submodule ) and so I can work on the Windows and Linux machines identically keeping them in sync while developing. I found that the lack of a coherent cross platform tool set with Git just made native working a nightmare, and the windows client actually trashed all my other secure network connections. Something that has supposedly been fixed, but is still a different tool set to the Linux installations. I still use CVS for the older programs and have yet to port them to Hg, but that will happen once Hg is also fully integrated into Eclipse ... at present Eclipse/CVS just works out of the box and has for years, although Eclipse/SVN is equally feature rich. BeyondCompare dovtailing in on that as well. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
