Out of curiosity (and this isn't directed at you, Michael (Potter)), but other than not being the hipster SCM-du-jour, what's wrong with svn? Of course, best tool for the job and all that stuff that makes people sound wise, but what have people found objectionable about it?<br>
<br>Granted, where I work it's mandated so I have no choice, and we don't have a workforce that is unable to get to the central repo for long periods, so it's probably good enough *for me*, but what other contexts do people have to use it in which it is not a good choice?<div class="HOEnZb">
