What do you do in your source control repository when you start a rewrite of a program?

I wrote an application a while back and have been maintaining it for a while now, but it's gotten to the point where there's several major new features to be added, a ton of changes that need made, and I know quite a few things I could do better, so I'm starting a rewrite of the entire program (using bits and pieces from original).

Time Machine vs Subversion

Is there any reason to not use Time Machine over Subversion (on Mac)? I've been using both Versions and Cornerstone trials. Neither can resolve merge issues.

Can different git-svn clones of the same svn repository expect to be able to share changes then git svn dcommit ?

Hi, I've read a great deal of "go from svn to git" and other "git-svn workflow" articles on the web, and still I think they often deal with overly simple situations. They are often targeted at guys who just want to use git and hack locally, without using the full power of git, like pull, fetch, merge and the like between multiple develo...

How to I tell VisualSVN to do a replace instead of a merge?

We're finding ourselves unable to open our project in Visual Studio because SVN is adding lines like "<<<<<<< .mine" to our .csproj files. This is apparently something SVN inserts when it has trouble merging files, but we're not interested in merging things as two people can never have the same file checked out. How do we set Visual ...
