My first job used SVN and it limited workflows compared to git. Branches are more expensive, so people adapt their workflows. I used git-svn on that job, which allowed me to refactor locally; not a feature available to me or others once pushed. My colleagues evaluated git and thought it was too complicated. A few years and a lot of employments later, they’re all using git. I don’t know if it was peer pressure from enough young recruits, but the verdict is clear: git is better than SVN.
