<linxeh> I dont see the point in battling against SVN or similar now git is ubiqutous (and powerful)
<deryl> SVN is wanna-be git on drugs
<deryl> bad drugs
<linxeh> well, it was better than much else at the time
<linxeh> at least it supported changesets
<FylGood> SVN is kinda like Nethandrahal man, just becoming upright, but definitely lacking in many ways.
<chiper> SVN is like the salt & pepper shakers, and git is a full spice rack
<chiper> for some people, a little salt is all it needs
<ibiwan> so where's CVS and VSS fit into your analogy?
<chiper> ibiwan: salt & pepper has to come from somewhere
<ibiwan> I think CVS must be a bowl of peppercorns
<chiper> indeed
<ibiwan> and VSS is a beautiful crystal vial of powdered dog shit
<chiper> ibiwan: that costs $50 per gram
<FylGood> Next time I'm in a job interview, if they ask me to tell them about my experience with CVS... I'll just say "it's basically a bowl of peppercorns". :p
<chiper> haha
<chiper> it does seem rather disingenuous of him to keep charging for TM1 tho
<ibiwan> and there's only one peppermill for the whole table, and it must be washed out and let air dry between uses
<FylGood> ibiwan: and I would say that if two people try to grab the peppermill at the same time.... (you fill in the rest)
<ibiwan> FylGood: it explodes and gets pepper in everyone's eyes
<ibiwan> in comparison, SVN is downright modern and developer-friendly
<FylGood> lol
<ibiwan> even the ones who weren't reaching for it
<ibiwan> and it's STILL better than VSS |
