- thenduks 16y agoThe thing is that it is intuitive if you only take some time to learn the new tool's features and how it is effectively used. Simply treating it like svn wont work. Yes you can 'get by' with some svn-like behaviors, but really dvcs is an entirely new thing you will have to learn to make sense of. Here's an analogy. Svn is a horse and git is a car. You can imagine all these horse-riders (and there are tons of them) sitting around in a bar saying to each other "these new cars? What is up with them? It makes no sense that you change 'gears' and push pedals to stop and go! I just want to <insert whatever you do to ride a horse> and I'll get to my destination!" -- Well, yea, horses work fine a lot of the time. But it's 2010 (1910? :)) and I have more eclectic needs in my change management. I'm willing to invest some time in learning it just like I was willing to invest time into learning vim, or Erlang, or anything else of value.
