Well written overview of the advantages of Git for development. I’m keeping an eye on this for now, but there’s one random thought that comes to mind: Linus Torvalds is a really, really smart guy. First, he has shepherded Linux, and now another of his “itches” has turned into a widely used and enthusiastically supported project. No, Git isn’t as successful as Linux yet. But imagine if it is? How many people do this twice?
