I do it myself all the time. +1! - offline work on your laptop - "git stash" - keep various branches (experimental, feature, stable...), with untold flexibility for cherrypicking, merges, etc - bisect! - visualise things with gitk - search with gitk for specific bits of code, changes (pickaxe), etc once you start... it's a bit addictive... m -- martin.langhoff@gmail.com martin@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff
