scmdiff marks the differences between the checked in version of a file and the file that's being edited. It marks it by coloring the changed lines. Is there any way to view the changes using a vimdiff-style split instead of just coloring the changed lines? For instance, if abc is a file under version control, then I can use the follow...

To learn Doxygen, I created a branch and modified the source file comments of a slow-moving project. However, that project has since had large changes, splitting a large file into several smaller files: big_file.c -> big_file.c file_a.[ch] file_b.[ch] I want to do the same on my branch. Obviously, I can duplicate my branch's large_...

Are there any surveys anywhere which report on number of projects and/or people using the assorted Free version control systems? Also interesting is if a similar survey was one over time, to see how things have changed.

I use GIT on a Mac. Enough said. I have the tools, I have the experience. And I want to continue to use it. No wars here... The problem is always with interoperability. Most people use SVN, which is great for me. Git SVN works out of the box, and is a no frills solution. People can continue happily use SVN and I don't loose my workflow ...

Disclaimer I don't do code review, so this question is purely of academic interest. I have seen plenty of posts on stackoverflow that advocates/requires code review before it is allowed into source control. If you do this, where do you store code the unreviewed code, and how do you deal with the issue where the developer has to update ...
I just did a merge and it seemed to work backwards to how I expected it to. I'm wondering if I did it wrong or if this a known 'issue'? I had 2 branches Experiment/Trunk I had done whatever I wanted to do on the experiment and merge it back to the trunk. Using Tortoise I right clicked Experiment->Merge. I chose Merge Two Different Tree...
