Personally I would need a very good reason to add yet another DVCS to the mix here! I've not found bzr as easy to link to from hg as git is. In fact I've not actually got it to play at all as yet ... while hg does work into git with only the problems of managing multiple repo's which is still work in progress on both of them. That said, bzr does seem to handle the multiple repo's in a more user friendly manor? It is just a pity that there is NOT a single target solution for DVCS as everybody is currently scurrying off to their own corners :( The barriers have already been drawn rather then there being concensus on some sort of standard. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
