my company uses svn for source control. just found out the guy in charge of the repo actually uses git and just has all developers use svn because "there's less of a learning curve". WHY?!?! Git is so much better!

If you take the time to learn git it will pay off in the long run.

Svn is shit. You should try to get your company to migrate to git asap, its just better.

ok, so I think that if you make a statement you should explain yourself. what the dev that takes care of the repo makes sense especially if the project is shortterm. I think there are cases where svn is better l, especially if the team is small.

I dont see any case where svn is better than git, including when the project is short term :)
