Digg.git

Summary of article: Git is awesome. It "reduce[d] the time our integration process took from days to minutes." And it scales better than SVN.

There's not too much in here that's going to be news to people. About the only interesting part is the reduction in merge times and how well it's scaled for them. But two sentences makes for a short article.

Still, it's nice to hear concrete figures about 1-2 days dropping down to ~30 minutes. Glad they shared.

Oh and I thought it was going to be about the new .git tld ...

In the past 3 weeks I have had a very similar experience. I switched my personal projects to git just before starting a new job where the dev team used git extensively. Coming from SVN, it quite honestly amazed me how quickly I was able to just create a new branch, make a small fix, and push it live without affecting any other changes that other devs or I had made.

If you haven't checked git out, I highly suggest you do so. All the hype is annoying at times, but it really does live up to at least most of it.

Yet another feature Digg has copied from reddit: http://code.reddit.com :)

Does Eclipse support GIT yet?

I'm conflicted about flagging digg and upvoting git.
