Linus Torvalds discussing source control programs and GIT

[Paul King]

Yeah, I guess I was wanting to start a discussion of "open source" source 
control software, not stuff you pay for. 

In my MIT project work (FAQ archive scripting right now), I use CVS, so I guess 
Torvalds would count me among people who should check themselves into a mental 
institution :-) I don't mind saying (out loud) that I don't mind CVS. But maybe 
the reason I don't mind is because my repositories consist of individual single 
scripts, written in Perl.

For my next project, I will produce a T-Shirt saying "I have been abused by 
Linus Torvalds". :-p

Before anyone gets too excited about what I do at MIT, it is volunteer work, 
and what I do plus a dollar will buy a doughnut at Timmies. I teach math in my 
day job. :-)
