Reuse of SVN repository [COMPLETED]

Alright, GIT has caused trouble for some people so I'm asking for a mutual opinion.
'Yes' means updating old SVN to current GIT version (little by little since it's gonna be done manually).
'No' means we stay to using GIT.

Your votes are important to me, and I'm gonna respect the wishes of majority.

Well, you know my story... i',m not a experimented developer... when you decide to change to git, i recently was going familiarizating on svn... and now with git, i no have big troubles or other things. The only inconvenience i  have, is when i updated my workspace to last revision. i do a new comparation to the remote git, and all changes i did, shows again, but, when i open these differences, have no differences. That is a little irritating, because, when you do a new update, i compare, and i obtain on comparation all the files i updated from when i started.

If i can solve this little problem is a NO.

Git will never let you compare if your local repository version is identical to HEAD. Meaning that you must be a commit behind to HEAD in order to compare your sources with next commit in remote repository.
To get a commit behind, you can use git reset (Team -> Reset). 'Soft' may do the thing but be careful and keep a backup of your custom changes.
'Hard' will reset everything including your custom changes so try to avoid using this one at all costs.

Well, since the project is retail-like oriented, I don't see why custom changes should be of concern. Don't get me wrong, I like to mod myself, but the main reason Lisvus is stable is that it remains retail oriented. Going back to SVN is a setback for sure. If someone wants to add custom code, stuff, or whatsoever it should be his/her responsibility to maintain it with the latest commit or revision. I mean, the whole community does not always benefit from said changes, its personal changes for each individual, for their server, or whatever, so yeah, GIT for me.

It is just my opinion.

To be honest i don't really see a downside of using SVN only.
Plus it'll get rid of 100 of questions, on the channel/forum, of people who never used Git before.

But its up to DnR to decide.

dude i use the 2.
Git I like because I can implement the codes that are modified to improve the server. without modifying my custom mods.
Svn is good for those who don't like to code by code.
but I think it's faster.

This poll comes to an end. We are going to move back to our old SVN repository, hosted by Assembla.
I have already began updating it little by little and once done, I will officially announce its use.
Thank you all for participating.


Best regards,
DnR
