Do the improvements listed at http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Roadmap#Milestone_Daffodil_.28Vers ion_1.0.29.2C_April_2008 imply distributed revision control? Many people, myself included, want this very much.
Hmm, this is more a tool issue than something we can do on the build service. The build service currently stores the sources pretty much the same way as git does, except that it uses md5 sums instead of sha1 sums to identify a release (this is for historical reasons). I'm thinking about switching it over to sha1 so that it is compatible to git, but I need to find some spare time for this.
If we could use git (with all of its features, of course) in place of "osc diff", "osc commit", etc., that might be OK, although it seems like more work in the long run than just using revision control in the first place. I think that's reasonable and would like to have that for the reasons
