No war, I also use daily SVN. The point was Git is becoming popular especially for hobbyists (no need for a real server) or small teams (no big assets).
Editor Integration:
I use both VCS systems as much from the command line as from external GUI, but Editor Integration is easier to grasp for beginners, especially if is automated:
- auto detection of VCS system used on existing project
- propose to initialize a new repository at project creation
As a C++ developer, I feel I could help on implementation of Git support, based on the SVN implementation.
Cheers!
