Linus codes up a patch managerLinus codes up a patch managerPosted Apr 11, 2005 19:48 UTC (Mon) by kevinbsmith (guest, #4778)In reply to: Linus codes up a patch manager by brianomahoney Parent article: Linus codes up a patch manager
This is very interesting. Each day that goes by makes it look more and more like 'git' could be the next kernel SCM, at least on an interim basis.
I haven't looked too closely, but it sure looks like a snapshot-based solution rather than a changeset-based solution. Monotone started out as the former, but moved to the latter. I think there is some consensus that changeset-orientation is superior.
I do wonder whether spending several days on git is the most effective use of Linus's time. But I guess if he's having fun, who am I to judge?
