Please understand, I am not arguing the merits of git with you. Rather, I am pointing out you haven't made the case that a change to use it instead of SVN is either warranted or feasible or practicable. I have a number of products in svn, and if I am to be convinced to use any other version control software to manage their code instead of SVN, I'd need to be presented with an analysis not only of what each option (RCS,CVS,SVN,git,MKS, &c.) offers, but proof that each works as described, that the benefits of making a switch outweigh the costs, and a viable plan for making the switch. And all of this would have to be supported from well documented experience. An argument comprised simply of a claim that product 'X' is the best available because it does 'Y' does not even come close.
This is all way off-topic for the boost-users list. I'm not a moderator here, but if I were, I'd be asking you to take it elsewhere. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
