After that you can "git push" your new branch to the remote repository.
That seems to have worked. Still, I have to ask: Do people really find
this easier and more reliable to use than "svn update"?
migrating to git from svn isnt because we think the pushing/pulling steps are
simpler -- everyone knows git/dscms are more complicated in this regard and a
noticeable hurdle for people who have only worked with centralized scms. the
reasons for git over svn were covered earlier in the thread. in my mind, git
is the hands down solution for these projects.
Well, ease of use was among the reasons listed. I find this puzzling as
my experience with git has been one of incomprehensible error messages
and repo corruption at the slightest provocation. However, I don't
contribute enough to uClibc for it to be a major inconvenience for me.
