Re: [Rails-devel] Idea: migrating away from cvs.

	1.  Test out the Git plugin for Eclipse. If the UI is similar enough
	to the CVS integration, we'll go with Git.

[EV] While reading around on Git an Egit, the following worried me:

	  Pulling (merge or rebase) new changes from upstream

	This is not yet available. Available alternatives currently include:

	    * run "git pull" from outside eclipse (but beware on Windows)
	    * if you did no local change or want to discard your local
changes, use "Team/Reset To..." 

	Retrieved from "http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide/Remote"

Does this mean that Egit (the Eclipse plugin) has no equivalent for CVS
update from a remote repository? 
That would rule it out for me. I don't want to be condemned to use the
(Windows) command line.

For the rest, I don't care for the distributed model - I don't see why I
would need a local repository.
But I trust you if you say that it can be easily bypassed.
