Agreed, that's what I stick to and git has been working great, very fast. I've noticed that if a push fails, all I have to do on the master is: git checkout -b foo // do the push from the client repo git branch -

I thought it was a good article, there are a lot of different programmers out there, not all do web programming. This provides necessary coverage of the core web stuff you need to know if you want to get into it.

Because software engineering should happen with programming languages plus service engines, the service engine should not be the total replacement for all.

You must be confused. I'm not claiming anything at all. I'm saying Google something and I'm saying someone wrote something 13 years ago. Any conclusions you draw are your own.
