I would love to use a chromebook as my main development machine, but the main thing is that I would like to be able to use Git offline. Has anybody moved to a chromebook as their main machine and been able to use version control while not connected to the internet?
- ioddly 13y agoI have, assuming installing Ubuntu on it isn't cheating.
