On: Pijul 1.0 Beta

Git is extremely fast. There was a pretty good article about how git is faster than cp(?) if I remember correctly. Can't find it anymore though.

It is fast for some operations indeed. But its merge is not always correct (conflicts might reappear, lines might get shuffled around randomly), and rebase and blame aren't super fast (Pijul isn't as optimised for speed as Git, yet Pijul credit is faster than Git blame, and apply is faster than the diff-and-replay strategy of Git rebase).

I understand that. I think the performance of git|pijul add has not much to do with merges though.

[pmeunier → StreamBright]

1. My comment about merges was not on performance. Performance can be considered no correct algorithms, not guesswork (such as 3-way merge).

2. "Git is fast", but when getting into the details, all the operations that are faster in Pijul do not matter.

Couldn't Pijul be a Git plugin?
