Is having to make a binary choice between Git or Mercurial, really that big a deal?
I just assumed that teams would make a consensual decision, stick to one and get on with it.
Seems like a great feat of engineering, but is it that wide a problem? (genuine question).
- caw 14y agoWelcome to corporate. For business group A, I use RCS. For business group B, I use SVN. For my own personal stuff I use git. No joke. Mercurial, Perforce, Clearcase are also in use depending who you ask. I'm sure we have some CVS still in use somewhere, and I think Bazaar may be installed, though I don't know who uses it. Basically if it exists, we have it installed, and someone might be using it, somewhere among the order of 100k employees worldwide.
- krmmalik 14y agoThat would explain my naivete on the matter. I don't deal with corporate much at all. I guess it makes sense for the corporate environment in that case then. Thanks for clearing it up.
