Subject: What Features Do I loose With git-svn?
Message-ID: <1304096029355-6317576.post@n2.nabble.com>

I want to use git for a project I am working on however because the project
is going to possibility have a lot of binary content in size and number of
files (game project), it is probably going to be hard to convince my team to
make the switch since I have no real solution besides just use git for the
code and svn for the binary data.  I am hoping git-svn will do the trick for
me.  The question is are they any features I loose (like cherry picking) or
anything that I have to look out for (does updating from svn cause merging
issues just like working all in SVN does).  Right now the only things I know
to look out for is:

<ul>
<li>Instead of git pull/push I have to use the git-svn equivalents</li>
<li>If I have changes that are not in the index and I need to pull the
latest code form SVN, I have to stash first, update from svn, and then apply
the stash back.</li>
</ul>

Any other things I have to look out for?  I am mainly concerned that using
git-svn will re-introduce the merge issues of SVN the git is great at doing.--
