All this talk about switching to git brings up one important question for me, and I suspect others..
Given all the various git-flow, git-this, git-that, git-whatever, tools that are getting mentioned..
Those are just tools that formalize a given workflow. None of them is necessary.
What is the process for a user that wants to do their development, including version control, like? Specifically what does an:
* Eclipse user do? * Xcode user do? * VIsualStudio user do?
Xcode and Eclipse support git natively. You'll have to get a plugin for Visual Studio.
I ask because I'm really tired of learning yet more command lines tools at this stage in my life. And even though all GUI tools have drawbacks they do have the advantage that they condense the workflow usages to something understandable. And I would be really hard pressed to use any new version control system that I can't use a GUI. And preferably an integrated GUI.
While most GUIs claim to be able to allow everything the original command-line utility can do, in truth they are more suited to simple tasks, more complex ones being better done with the real thing.
