atheist98358ySvn switch works fine... Let's you switch repo urls, if they have common parents does an efficient merge of changes. Granted it's not the same as git, there's no complete local db, but don't bash for the sake of bashing.

@flag0 Would it be fair to say you've used git more than SVN? I haven't - in all my career, for various reasons, I've never used git in work. Have used SVN forever though and yes, it's limited, but I follow it much more easily than git.

I feel the other dev though. Having to work with subversion while knowing the benefits of git is a bummer.
There are some tools though that serve as a git to subversion gateway, e.g. git-svn

I use git for my personal projects, but the place I work at still uses self hosted SVN.......Thankfully they are moving to Git in near future
other dev at work: "why cant i switch branch of my SVN repo like Git"
Me: "Cuz it uses different approach, different branches are at different locations......."
Him: "but how can i use it like Git"
Me: "you cant"
Him: "but why"
Me: "Get away from me before i throw something heavy at you"
