SVN's future

The conflict over the future of SVN seems to be: support the average Joe programmer who has flocked to SVN, or try and out do the existing distributed version control systems? The full post makes for interesting reading.

Apparently he and his co-developers were surprised when they developed SVN that the great masses of regular Joe programmers would adopt SVN,


Now distributed version control systems like Mercurial and GIT are all the buzz right now with those on the bleeding edge of tools. That these systems are supposed to make branching and merging trivial situations sounds like a great idea to me.
