Abstract

While slowly merging with Sweden , and ADSL which should reach my house in some two weeks, I am enjoying my new office space and Git to upload patches to the CDK. Christoph wondered if we should switch CDK from SVN to Git. A few developers objected, for various reasons: no native Windows clients (though msysgit might be the solution), no (stable) plugins for Eclipse, IDEA(?), etc.
