These days, most people use [[git]]. + +While all supported revision control systems work well enough for basic +use, some advanced or special features are not supported in all of them. +The table below summarises this for each revision control system and +links to more information about each. + +[[!table data=""" +feature |[[git]]|[[svn]]|[[bzr]] |[[monotone]]|[[mercurial]]|[[darcs]]|[[tla]] |[[cvs]] +[[ikiwiki-makerepo]]|yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |no |yes +auto.setup |yes |yes |incomplete|yes |incomplete |yes |incomplete|yes +`rcs_commit_staged` |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |no |yes +`rcs_rename` |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |no |yes +`rcs_remove` |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |no |yes +`rcs_diff` |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes |yes +`rcs_getctime` |fast |slow |slow |slow |fast |slow |slow |slow +`rcs_getmtime` |fast |slow |slow |slow |fast |no |no |no +`rcs_preprevert` |yes |no |no |no |no |no |no |no +`rcs_revert` |yes |no |no |no |no |no |no |no +anonymous push |yes |no |no |no |no |no |no |no +conflict handling |yes |yes |yes |buggy |yes |yes |yes |yes +openid username |yes |no |no |no |yes |yes |no |no +"""]] + +Notes: + +* Lack of support in [[ikiwiki-makerepo]] or auto.setup can make it harder to + set up a wiki using that revision control system. +* The `rcs_commit_staged` hook is needed to use [[attachments|plugins/attachment]] + or [[plugins/comments]]. +* `rcs_getctime` and `rcs_getmtime` may be implemented in a fast way (ie, one log + lookup for all files), or very slowly (one lookup per file). +* Openid username support allows avoiding display of Google's ugly openids. + +There is a page with [[details]] about how the different systems work with +ikiwiki, for the curious. |
