Am I alone in liking svn? Like, not necessarily "more" than hg/git but not "less" either.
I get everything Joel says in that first page svn rant, but, part of me was like "well why did you choose to use it that way then?".
Even the whole "hg/git are decentralised, svn is not" mantra bothers me. So friggin create a personal svn repo and merge back when ready already. I've used a decentralised svn workflow more times than I can count now. It's really not that hard.

Git gives it to you for free.
- tpoacher 4y agoAbsolutely. Just at a different cost.
- mixmastamyk 4y agoIt is true that svn has improved over the years since dvcs became mainstream. New workflows developed as well. Unfortunately no one wants to use anything but git+hub any longer. Networks effects sucked all the air out of the room. gitlab is decent I have to say however.
