It does, but the learning curve is much higher then with SVN or CVS. I have used both for my own stuff and it was not a nice experience, with git or hg/mercurial ones you have things set up it is easy and much much more powerful/flexible. > > I would offer diff- or patch-files against the original repository like > I done in the past with CVS/SVN reps. > > This wall is to high to make participation of "little devs" possible. > That is not what a open project should be. I am a little dev, just doing all this as a hobby and it took a bit to learn but I wouldn't go back to SVN/CVS for my own stuff. Maybe I am not the best to explain, but I'll give it a go on the wiki and then others can correct me and/or provide simple versions.
