Re: Versioning system - Subversion Vs. Git

> We also have someone who wants to put all of our Drupal stuff into a
versioning system so it would be easy to tell if something has changed on
the server. I know to little to know if this is the way to go or if this is
even possible.

from drupal maintainers-news:

-------- CVS IS BEING REPLACED WITH GIT
------------------------------
--------

Drupal.org is moving off of CVS for project version control! The Drupal
Association sponsored the project to help move drupal.org to a more modern
system enabling the community to do even smoother collaboration. Your new
helper will be git (originally written to manage the Linux kernel code). The
team is hard at work to accomplish the migration before Drupalcon Chicago.
Mid-Februrary is the tentative launch date.

What does moving to git mean for Drupal.org? Read more at
http://groups.drupal.org/node/106224

We made the existing source of drupal.org projects available under
git.drupal.org in a ready-only mode, so you can use it to roll patches or
just check out code already.

It's very important to understand that the migration will not be a gradual
process - when the flip is switched, CVS will become instantly read-only,
and
git will replace it entirely. So the sooner you familiarize yourself with
git, the better! Get books for the holidays, read some great tutorials. Here
are some of our tips:
