I disagree with the person you're replying too, but CVS and SVN are not the current generation of version control systems (and CVS is perhaps not even the previous generation), so it's unclear why you bring them up.
If you want to compare, compare to darcs, mercurial, bazaar, monotone, ... plenty of choice without going back to svn (let alone cvs).
- pawadu 10y agoI agree with you on all accounts ;) The point I was half-jokingly making was that people don't understand what an extremely powerful tool they have been given and instead complain about shallow stuff that for them is simple to grasp edit: the way mg, bzr and the rest do the advanced stuff [when available] is basically a carbon copy of git.
- laughinghan 10y ago> the way mg, bzr and the rest do the advanced stuff [when available] is basically a carbon copy of git. I'm a pretty big fan of git, but this is an unproductive stance. I don't know much about bzr, but my impression is that darcs pioneered the ideas that became git-rebase, and elsewhere in this thread people are having substantive discussions about hg (Mercurial; I assume that's what you meant by mg) bookmarks and branches vs git branches: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13229582 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13229582
