We are switching to Subversion from Perforce at work. It has not gone
well :-}
Basically, Subversion had performance problems (possibly related to
dbxml), and
landed me in trouble (long story). We hope that new releases will have
fixed the problems this week.
but we dont have a choice, do we? unless CVR wants to run a Subversion
sevice on Sarovar.
