---+ Should I Use Git or Subversion (SVN)?

In many ways, this is a matter of taste, however, there are some main ways in which the two differ:

| | *Git* | *SVN* |
| Online or Offline Workflow | Either | Online Only |
| Backup Location | Every client has the full<br />history, can have multiple<br />online backups | Only on Lemur |
| Backup Automation | Can be automated,<br />is not by default | Changes committed to server<br />with every checkin |
| Branches | Much easier branching/<br />merging system | Branches harder to use |
