Version Control

My own GIT-SVN Crib Sheet.

  1. Most useful reference thus far: http://linux.yyz.us/git-howto.html
  2. Good stuff on branching / merging and the rest of what makes GIT a bit confusing to newbs: http://lwn.net/Articles/210045/
  3. Git - SVN Crash Course — side-by-side command comparison
  4. Use GIT to talk to SVN repositories with the “git-svn” command.

SVN Tricks

Well, I've not left SVN behind completely.

Partial Checkout

# Check out a project, but only sub-dirs A B and C, out of potentially thousands of sub-dirs
# Superceeded by --set-depth=* functionality of SVN v1.5
svn co -N http://url-of-repo/project
svn up A B C
