I tried using git, but I'm still pretty unclear on the actual advantages. It mostly seems to be hand waving about disconnected operation and cheap branches, but I already have the former, and don't really want the latter. - landonf@bikemonkey.org

I warned you about that git-svn flakiness. That aspect of it is totally oversold - and really didn't seem to work very well. - Robin Barooah

I just found it cumbersome to have to: git add (whatever small change I just made); git commit; git stash (whatever other mods I had); git svn dcommit (to push my commit upstream) and finally git stash pop; when with svn I just: svn commit (whatever small change I just made). Maybe I'm just not using GIT right. I still like the idea of being able to git blame and do incremental commits when I'm disconnected. - Michael

yeah - well that dance you describe is part of what you pay for using it with svn. One doesn't have to do so much when just using git repos. Admittedly if you want an SVN like workflow, it's still 3 steps - add, commit, and push. Wouldn't SVK do your disconnected thing better? - Robin Barooah
