Primarily because I am used to subversion (the repo is already in subversion on my home machine). Secondly I am not sure whether I will find hosts for mercurial

Primarily because I am used to subversion (the repo is already in subversion on my home machine). Secondly I am not sure whether I will find hosts for mercurial or git?
- brianr 19y agoIf subversion is already working ok then I guess there's no pressing reason to switch, but if you want to try something new, git (http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html) seems pretty cool so far (been using it for about a week). You can put the repository anywhere you want (e.g. your home directory) so you should be able to run it on any host. The fastest/easiest/recommended way is to just run it locally.
- mooneater 19y agogit-svn makes it easy to migrate from svn to git, or to use git in conjunction with svn. This screencast was a great intro to git and git-svn (not free): http://peepcode.com/products/git http://peepcode.com/products/git
- hhm 19y agoDarcs is also a very interesting option. Have you tried it? I've been using it for one week after a few years using SVN and it seems like a very viable option.
