I have the classic "that's a feature, not a bug" feeling about that ;-) Not
having to run every commit through a remote server means that you can still
be very productive, even in the absence of an internet connection.
A lot of the projects I've been working on lately utilize the gerrit review
board system. For instance, all new code that goes into avogadro must pass
through this gerrit instance:
http://review.source.kitware.com/#/q/status:open+project:avogadro,n,z
This makes sure that all code is checked by another set of eyes and tested
before being committed to master, and, in relation to the above, Marcus has
written some handy git aliases to make it easier to push changes upstream:
"git prepush" shows a log of the commits that will be pushed to the review
board, and "git gerrit-push" pushes the current branch to gerrit. It's
quite easy to use, and gets rid of a lot of the syntactic sugar otherwise
needed to do a remote push in git.
