When did you start using git? From which version? The primary assumption of the survey seems to be that the responder is already using git. What about some questions for people _not_ using git; things like (badly written I'm sure, but you get the idea): Not using GIT Have you heard of git? i.e. do you know what it's for? Do you already use a VCS? Which one? Are you happy with it? If not, would you like to use a VCS? If you don't use a VCS already and don't want to - why not? If you do use a VCS already, but it's not git - why not? Would you like to use git but git doesn't supply a feature you need? What would you require from git to enable you to change? > What you think of GIT > > 1.
