The reason it is important is that most other source control systems have much stronger concepts for branches and tags and moving to them while maintaining all history is normally supported with tools if you have a conventional repo layout. It's not critical or urgent but an example use case is my situation. I use git-svn because it gives me lots of excellent git features while working with svn but because of our repo layout I can't easily have two projects checked out at once because it expects everything to reside in the trunk with only branches and tags in their respective locations. For example if I want to build the docs I have to switch my working tree to docs, another branch, which hides the branch I was on 'wsjtx' while I'm there. This is the main reason that I don't edit the docs or contribute to other JT projects as it is so painful to coerce git-svn to bend the standard layout rules. > > -- Joe, K1JT > 73 Bill G4WJS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Meet PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance Requirements with EventLog Analyzer Achieve PCI DSS 3.0 Compliant Status with Out-of-the-box PCI DSS Reports Are you Audit-Ready for PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance?
