In this article, Thomas Guest suffers from the blub paradox. "What do I like most? The command to revert a change. Merge it backwards. $ svn merge --change -666" This is like lupin_sansei writing an article about how much he loves that the command to edit a file in Visual SourceSafe is "check out." It's broken, and doesn't need to be that way. In mercurial, for instance, the command is called hg backout! I celebrate the fact that Mr. Guest at least uses version control at work, and Subversion is fine. However, the comfort working with it is the feeling of stagnancy in personal growth.
