No not really. CVS and git are basically the same thing but git is a lot better in many ways. I don't know if noms is really the git for data but those other tools are more like CVS in this analogy: clunky and slow.
- emmelaich 10y agoThey are so different it's hard to know what you mean by "basically the same thing"
- rpedela 10y agoYes there are significant differences in terms of feature, implementation, etc but they have the same goal: manage source code versions.
