I have a 10 hour plane journey to look forward to and currently working with subversion. Meaning I have to save up all my changes and do my commits after I landed and hook up with a wifi hotspot. Hmmm, not very convenient, I'm one of these people who likes to commit a lot. So I was in need of a distributed version control thingy.

I watched Linus Google tech talk on GIT
and the mercurial google tech talk by Bryan O'Sullivan.

Installed them both, dumped my subversion tree into them. And to be honest with you, I could have done a proper technical review, browsed lots of forums but..Linus is just more fun in his presentation and on top of this here is one of his quotes: "I'm an egotistical bastard, and I name all my projects after myself. First 'Linux', now 'git'."

Hahaha

So my gitweb is up and running now.

Happy cloning!!
