Git an svn alternativ
I found Git a very useful alternative to svn. Svn is of course better supported in Java IDEs like Eclipse or IntelliJ but Git brings one major advantage. There is only one .git folder in the root and not everywhere. You can more around files freely and Git has no problem to cope with the situation.
On my Ubuntu/Debian system I could install Git as follows.
sudo aptitude install git-core gitweb
I followed the instruction on http://vafer.org/blog/20080115011407
Have fun.
