Great post. I implemented SVN in an environment that did not have any source control, so it was not easy to move folks to a branching model within SVN. Maybe doing git would be easier.<p>Been looking into the best way to do this, since the individual branch model might work easier for doing tag, release, feature, and stable branches. But mainly if it could simplify merging, which is a little more painful in SVN I think, even using a basic model. So many conflicts come up that I wouldn't think should be an issue.<p>Any thoughts or links would be appreciated. Thanks.
