Re: Why you should care about version control, and why I suggest git

Nice little post. I played with Git for the first time a few weeks ago and found the same documentation resource as you, which was quite a help. Git is a very nice system versus SVN which I had used a few years ago. It is something that programmers should look at.

My team was thinking about using Git for the next years as it would go along with Java or C++ quite nicely. We were thinking about having the main programming desktop contain the Git server where upon all the programmers would download the code into their laptops and make edits and so forth. If anyone wanted to bring it home, all they would have to do is take their laptop home, do the same edits and commits, and bring it back the next day. The main server would retain all their edits and separate commits. Now to me, that is just cool.
