It did not happen to me. I spent several days to get reasonably[1] working
git repo, so I could use git as a client on the Lazarus svn repo, and I
failed.
Not to rehash and old thread, but there is a big difference between
the "convenience of Git wrapping a SVN repository" and a native true
Git repository. With the first option, it is for convenience only
(full history, search history, local commits, local branches etc.
[1]), but you still loose a huge amount of the true Git features (all
the previous features, plus use speed increase in pulling/pushing,
much better branch history etc.). So never compare the two usages as
the same thing. A native Git repository is very different in
functionality.
I understand, but that it is nonsense to recommand git based on reports,
reviews on using a native git reporitory to people who want to
contribute to Lazarus, because then they have to comminucate to a SVN
server somehow. So I admit: "Git is wonderful, as long as you don't want
to use it with Lazarus SVN on windows".
