Just got an email from the boss asking if me and the other dev on a project have been liaising with each other before editing code because changes were being lost and over written.

Wouldn't it be great if here were some way to manage collaborations and control versions of files? *git*

The company is so reluctant to use git and do things properly.

-.-

    What kind of company doesn't want to use version control??

    They do everything they can to avoid it.. Apparently git 'causes as many problems as it solves' and it's 'simple enough to manage without it'

    Thankfully, I'm currently serving my notice period...

    Wow. Sounds like the person who said that has never worked with software development :/

    Gosh, how big is the team? I work with 20+ SW Engineers on the same program and it would be a nightmare w/o it

    Not only that they won't go near anything like Gulp or Grunt and think that minification and concatenation is useless and makes there work in pure CSS (no Sass/Less) harder. I've tried to explain. I gave up.

    Hopefully they will see the importance of version control. Otherwise risks galore.

    Have any of you guys tried Plastic SCM? Could be a good alternative* for anyone reluctant to use git.

    * I don't work for Plastic SCM, but I use both Plastic and git. Both are awesome.
