Windows switch to Git almost complete

Daily reminder

so?

Next they will switch to linux for all their development. Wouldn't surprise me

>giant 300GB git repository for the entire OS

That's fucking retarded. Each discrete component should have its own repo, and their build system should fetch all of the necessary repos.

>not mercurial
windows devs confirmed retarded

Don't teach Windows how to be decent, they are ignoring it on their own will.

That's the norm in the industry.

What do you expect from a company full of pajeets?

That's actually what they're moving away from.

Hey, that's pretty neat, they actually optimised git. GVFS may not be always useful (on 99% of repos I'd rather wait about a minute, than have to take several seconds to load each new file) but the general improvements are nice.

inb4 they try to add a botnet into git

except this doesn't work, that's why google, microsoft and facebook use monorepos

And nothing of quality came out of those companies.

>Be microsoft
>I know, i'm going to make my own repo platform, is going to be great
>I'll name it CodePlex
>Fast forward to the future
>Everyone just uses anything else
>Microsoft announces CodePlex shutting down and moving all their shit to GitHub
>Doesn't even get to be news because no one uses CodePlex at all

still would be irrelevant if it were true

You clearly don't know what quality means.

>microsoft on git
>my company still on svn
really makes my brain go doki doki

Be happy. Your company could be on vss or perforce.

They switched to svn in 2012. I can only assume they were on cvs before that.

In 10 years they'll switch to git.

At least you're not on tfs

>git
>github

There's WebDev(tm) retards who can't really tell the difference between Java and Javascript to this day. What do you expect.

You are retarded

>1760 builds / day

goes to show there's little correlation between developer activity and product quality :^)

>tfw 0 builds/day
My product is fucking perfect

It doesn't make it any less retarded. This is what Subversion is for. Git is just hyped, and so it's getting used in situations it shouldn't.

it's a shame you don't work for any of those companies because you would've saved them lots of money. their loss I guess
