Thanks for the insight, <br><br>btw. that would be a really really nice topic for the next tech & social meet in early january.<br><br>Especially on GIT (basics, concept, usage, especially branching/merging) and also the GIT / SVN usage (differences, pros/cons, basically working with git and a subversion backend)
<br><br>Are you in vienna in (when was the meeting scheduled... hmm) the second week of january and of course would you like to give a presentation on it? (At least I'd love to see one, if you need someone to go through the subversion stuff, count me in, as I had to deal with subversion and a clearcase conversion quite a lot the last weeks)
