Seriously though, yes, git works very nicely for 1-person teams as well as for large teams. Especially the ability to "git init && git add . && git commit -m 'got part of the assignment done'" has helped me a lot. Before I started using git I would come to the point where I thought 'ah, good, it almost works, now all I have to do is add feature x, and then 10 minutes later I'd be wishing I had used some form of revision control so I could go back to that working version! -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier
