I have been looking around, and read about DARCS (http://abridgegame.org/darcs/) A system that is build purely with decentralized, vuluntary, non-hierarchical communities in mind. IMO it gets much closer to our ideal workflow then SVN will ever get us.
I've been using Darcs for 2-3 months now. Based upon my experience, I would advise against using Darcs: 1. You need to master more commands. It's slightly more complex than CVS. 2. If you delete files from your tree, there is no equivalent to 'cvs -q up -AdP' to get them back. Highly annoying. 3. It is not scalable due to the fact it is written in Haskell. I'm more interested in 'git', but it might be premature. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
