This is already a lot more of free info than git provides.
but the number two doesn't tell you how much has changed. If I
wanted to know how many commits occurred between two commits (God only know
why I would want to know that), Git could tell me that too.
Anyway, we are getting way off topic here and it's pointless discussing
this further.
Well, I don't wonder, you always tell us how great git is but at every
thing I look, it plainly sucks:
- git svn
- line feed handling (how can I do it failsafe?)
- merging (how do I merge blocking?)
- handling of empty directories
- tortoisegit (ever used tortoisesvn?)
Of course, it's all my fault that I don't see the use of the unix script
hackery called git. So you can continue to ignore the concerns and we
will continue to use svn :)

I wanna break a spear in favor to Graeme and his git-svn-crusade.
(spanish expression, I do not know if it make sense or sounds good in
english language)
I am using git from around 9 months. I need to handle git remote
repositories (many thanks Graeme for Lazarus mirror at GitHub), svn
remote repositories (for some projects I contribute) and my own
projects. I had same issues at begining, I had to download two or three
times the same remote svn history to obtain fully history because my
fault: I do not read all documentation, so I could not build correct
command. At begining I was using windows with cygwin implementation, was
a testing compueter, git failed or was very slow, I never test git
native implementation at windows and then I switched completly to linux.
I do not know current support of git at windows. At Linux I never had
any issue, once I read documentation ;-). Never had any issue with
endline handling commiting at git remote repos or commiting to svn
repos, other developers are at Windows and Mac and never reported that
my changes break his builds. Git-svn is as fast as svn as far I can see.
I had some local branches that I commit to upstream only the changes I
want, very easily and without no problems. I have full history offline
(I value this a lot).
I do not use usually gitg or gitk, I prefer command line access, gui is
very ugly for me :-) Only when I want to see global state of branches.
But when this happens, I prefer 'git rebase master _branch_' and then
all changes to master are merged at _branch_ BEFORE local changes to
_branch_. Really is like if I created a new branch from master, and
merge all changes from _branch_ to new branch, this is very usefull when
you prepare a 'git svn dcommit'!
Sumarizing: my developer life was changed a lot when I found git, and
changed to a better life.
PS: Sorry for my very bad grammar.
