Using git for ros source as main revision control system.

one of the best source control tools

Prove it!!!

Prove it!!!

Here is the proof

It ought to be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. […] This coolness arises […] partly from the incredulity of men, who do not readily believe in new things until they have had a long experience of them.

1.Whose is this words?
2.I need real facts, which can be checked.
In favor of git i gave this link: http://joshcarter.com/productivity/svn_ ... _directory
Also i compared http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/vendor/ got via svn and via git-svn (compare including .git and all .svn folders):

Code: Select all

cluster size of my HDD is 4 KB (default for Windows)
vendor:
Revision:		40473
Last commit revision:	40414
---
vendor via svn:
Size:		585 MB (614 465 297 byte)
On disk:	732 MБ (768 143 360 byte)
Contains:	Files: 54 950; dirs: 11 609
---
vendor via git-svn:
Size:		330 MB (346 641 471 byte)
On disk:	372 MБ (390 348 800 byte)
Contains:	Files: 19 093; dirs: 1 267

Now I'm downloading branches via git-svn. I'll compare it later..

Wait, you're using an http prefix for the SVN address?

Wait, you're using an http prefix for the SVN address?

http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/vendor/ - is only ViewVC for real http://svn.reactos.org/reactos/vendor/ or svn://svn.reactos.org/reactos/vendor/ .
For svn i used svn://svn.reactos.org/reactos/vendor/
for git-svn i've to use http://svn.reactos.org/reactos/vendor/ , because, as i think, git-svn does not support svn://*.* .

Update:
hm.. my mistake - git-svn working with svn://*.* too =) now, i'm using svn://svn.reactos.org/reactos/vendor/ for git-svn too.

Now, i'm downloading reactos/vendor, reactos/braches and trunk/KDE together via git-svn:

Git using majority resources of my computer, but i it don't become slow. So git has very good distribution of resources and paralleling.
