However, I recently learned git and would *never* go back. For starters, it's *much* faster than any other system. The use of branches is completely phenomenal. And the ability to quickly set up and host a repository for anyone with just some file copies to any HTTP share is worth its weight in gold. -- Paul W.

Thanks for the responses guys, again, very appreciated! I hope this thread would be of help to some other people too, although I would still like more responses from more people ;) -- Armin <a href="mailto:feng.shaun@gmail.com">feng.shaun@gmail.com</a> "Dare to Dream?" </div>
