Very interesting! Do you end up using it as a client to git repos?
- neandrake 8y agoI've been able to avoid git repos for the most part, or the few times I've had to interact with them I've kept it a bare minimum of contribution to avoid any complex workflow. It's not the best idea especially since the industry still largely uses git, however I haven't had the appropriate occasion to learn git while also learning the project and commit the git process to memory. I've heard you can use hg on git repos but I haven't investigated using that yet. By far I think the things that confuse me most are I believe two points you brought up in your post -- local vs. public changesets, and working in a detached head state (working on a feature branch and then rebasing onto primary branch for landing). I think on top of that I get overly confused when github is thrown into the mix as again I've not sat down to learn the process since it comes up only sporadically.
