Subversion Doesn’t Suck

I asked Andy Singleton, of client Assembla, to explain to me the differences between Subversion and git. The result was this blog post – which has already generated a ton of traffic for Andy’s blog.

With Subversion, everyone is working on the same thing.  It unifies a team.  And, it’s radical because it’s really easy to use.  You get a graphical client with four point-and-click operations – checkout, update, revert, and commit.  Even designers can use it.  Even clients can use it.  People rave about its usability,  and its mind-melding social structure.

I’ve been trying to wrap my mind around a lot of these things, Subversion, Ruby, Rails, Ruby on Rails… Having Andy for a client means the answers to my questions are only a blog post away.

PS, if you are feeling generous, please give Andy’s blog post a nudge on Reddit.
