   The size doesn't matter. ;)   
      
   If two (or more) people in different places use a VCS, a Distributed VCS has a   
   lot of advantages. (And I just prefer git over the others like bzr or hg,   
   which I have tried)

   Today I worked a bit with TortoiseCVS to get the makenl sources and view it's   
   history and diffs, and I already hate it! TortoiseGIT (or even TortoiseSVN)   
   works and looks so much better...
