We've had this debate before, but something along the lines of:
* No GUI for Git on Windows
* Everything knows how to work with Subversion already (tools, testing, continuous integration, idiots)
* Companies like centrally controlled and backed up solutions
* Why change when what you have works for you
- asnyder 17y agoWhat do you mean no GUI for Git on Windows? There's the excellent TortoiseGit http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/, along with numerous other tools that you can find on the Git wiki.

- dlsspy 17y ago> Companies like centrally controlled and backed up solutions git wins fast over svn for backups. git backups are redundant, always up-to-date, easily verifiable, and easy to turn into proper master repositories. The more people you have working on a project, the harder it gets for anything to get lost.
- rs 17y agoTo be fair to the subversion guys, its pretty darn easy to setup real-time backups. Use svnsync and hook it up in some post-commit hook. Having said that, to have git completely backed up, it's not as simple as a clone. You will need to mirror another repository so that you can get all of the branches, tags, etc. Additionally you will need some sort of post-receive hook so that your mirror is kept up-to-date. Now, my conclusion with backups for svn and git - both need some intervention. Its not as simple as "press this button and it just works".
