Not that either of us get a vote here, but just so no one else goes around repeating that misinformation: http://whygitisbetterthanx.com/#git-is-small http://book.git-scm.com/7_how_git_stores_objects.html http://book.git-scm.com/7_the_packfile.html git certainly has issues, and as others have mentioned, the learning curve is one of its biggest, but efficient use of storage is not a common problem. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Platform Engineering: X Window System _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list oi-dev@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
