I don't think I'd mind being called a Git fanboy. I had already had good experiences from the end-user side of things, and I've now had the chance to do some low-level stuff with Git repositories. The userspace utilities allow you to do everything, and they are very easy to work with. I tried the same thing with Bazaar a while back, and it was an absolute nightmare when you tried to get into bzrlib. I don't know about hg, but I've heard that it's not too well documented, either. Anyway, I think Git is even more impressive once you look under the hood. -- Andrew McNabb http://www.mcnabbs.org/andrew/ PGP Fingerprint: 8A17 B57C 6879 1863 DE55 8012 AB4D 6098 8826 6868
