There are many teams in big old companies which haven't transitioned to git or any modern source control. I remember hearing this for Oracle, not sure if it is still the case.
- chrisseaton 4y agoThe part of Oracle I was in were using Git on BitBucket when I was there years ago. They were on GitHub for a time but decided they didn't like the PR functionality.
- XorNot 4y agoDid they say why? I'm struggling to think of any difference?
- chrisseaton 4y agoMaybe it was some Atlassian plug-in to the PR system?
- YetAnotherNick 4y agoIs it consistent for all teams?
- chrisseaton 4y agoI think different teams do what works for them - Oracle is pretty heterogeneous.
- jghn 4y agoEvery time my team is hiring I am always amazed at how many developers have no, or almost no, git experience. People on HN assume some of these things as givens but it's not the case.
- lakomen 4y agoI have almost no git experience. I know how to add, commit and push, but that's it. For anything else I have to use a search engine or tool like git-cola. I liked hg/mercurial better, but no one uses that. And all the little error messages of git, change a file BOOYA you can't pull anymore and have to jump through hoops. I don't like git.
- Panzer04 4y agoBit late, but strongly recommend you learn how git rebase works - 90% of my git understanding came in once I started using it.
