Rails - Jul 2007 - what happens to people who try to use Rails with another CMS besides SVN?

Just curious, because the Subversion hooks seem so pervasive and
un-polymorphic in all the Rails source.

Do people who try to use Perforce or CVS get used as pinatas? Do they
wake up in the middle of the night with glowering Tiki statues at the
foot of their beds? Do their relatives inflict endless penguin-themed
CGI movies on them? Does the RIAA accuse them of stream-ripping and
put them on no-fly lists?

I have had no problems at all with using Mercurial. It''s just as 
straight forward as using Subversion. Only issue I''d see is if you 
really like svn:externals and/or piston, but, at least for me, these can 
be lived without (and probably duplicated in some way or another).

Rails uses SVN because it''s pragmatic. SVN is IMO the best source
control
software out there, and it''s the one DHH and team decided to use as
it''s got
the most traction right now.

Of course, the only places SVN is explicitly used is rails:freeze:edge and
in plugin install, depending on how it''s installed. There is no
requirement
of having SVN to use Rails. I''ve done Rails with cvs just fine.

If you''re being kept up at night by glowing Tiki statues, I suggest
finding
an excorsist :P

"glowering"

and _we_ use SVN because ... it''s the best so far!

I was thinking about experimental code like rake test:uncommitted,
that unapologetically shells to SVN without any adapter layer...

I can think of a number of Perforce advocates (and one Linus  
Torvalds) who''d take issue with the idea that svn is the best source  
control software out there.  I don''t even know that I''d agree
with
the statement, and I (happily) use svn heavily.  svn could use opaque  
collections, automatic fs behavior (i.e. get rid of svn mv and svn  
cp), local interim commits, far better merge support, fully  
transactional commits, etc.  People in favor of fully distributed  
"trees" won''t be happy with svn either.
