[Noisebridge-discuss] Version control

[Matt Peterson]

Wow, this is total scary + awesome.  +1

It would be great to get a quick run down comparing the various  
popular flavors of version control systems.  May I suggest a basic  
primer in the beginning, noting that not all of us are 2 dot 0hhh  
agile blah blah programmers by day.

My music files don't change enough to warrant checking in - do you  
remix most of your audio files often?  I do find such systems very  
popular in network and site operations work.  For example, I tend to  
setup simple 'poke SNMP, dump to TFTP, push into SVN' systems that  
auto-fro-magically keep track of router configurations, load balancers  
and other bits that get twiddled.
