You can buy Git support from several different vendors. Were you honestly not aware of this? Try googling for "Git support".

  Which isn't quite the same as being able to get support from the company which built the software and who can push out a new release to fix the bug that you've just run into.

    (is there a better way to do quotes on HN?) > Which isn't quite the same as being able to get support from the company which built the software I'm sure they'll build Git for you if you ask :) Do you think the original authors of Perforce etc. are still with the company? Are you under the impression that their current development team understand the Perforce source code far better than people providing professional Git support understand Git's? > and who can push out a new release to fix the bug that you've just run into. That's exactly what Git support can do. Why not? [edit: to clarify who "they" are]

      Christopher Seiwald is still at Perforce. I would have to say: Yes, the current Perforce development team understands the Perforce source code intimately at least as well as the core developers of Git know Git, if not better. Disclaimer: I work for Perforce
