If you’re still using a non-distributed version control system like Subversion, this is a great introduction to the new world order. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/distributedvcs">distributedvcs</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/joel-spolsky">joel-spolsky</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/mercurial">mercurial</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/subversion">subversion</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://www.aeracode.org/2009/9/10/announcing-heechee/">Announcing Heechee</a></strong></p> “Heechee is a transparent mercurial-as-subversion gateway”—you can use it to allow subversion clients to check out a mercurial repository, meaning svn:externals can work against projects hosted by mercurial. It’s very young code but I’ve already seen it out-perform regular subversion for checkout speed. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/andrew-godwin">andrew-godwin</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/heechee">heechee</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/mercurial">mercurial</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/subversion">subversion</a></p>
