He said he spends ten times more time on building than on managing revision control. That doesn't mean 10x more deployment or development.

On the other hand, I can tell you we have almost 10x more downloads than we have svn commits ;-)



There is very little that is hard with managing your source code on your local workstation.

To commit any changes, you type in:

  git commit -a -m "thing that I changed"
To branch, it's:

  git checkout -b newbranch
To switch back to the master branch, you just type in:

  git commit -a -m "changes made on branch"
  git checkout master
To merge in that branch, should you so wish to do so, then you type in:

  git merge newbranch
What is exactly so hard about that?
