Not in my experience.. The only thing missing is pushing tags to subversion. I tag with svn or svk when I need to do that, but for everything else git svn works well (I use branches quite heavily, and the fact that git's model is so much more flexible WRT branches makes it even more useful than SVK for me). To me SVK is like making subversion bearable, while git is about making it obsolete. Obviously SVK's support of SVN repositories is a little smoother, but the benefits of having a real git repository with real git branches, merging, cherry picking and so on that can sync bidirectionally to SVN outweighs this for me. -- Yuval Kogman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nothingmuch.woobling.org 0xEBD27418
