Listen.
So far as you see, almost _NOBODY_ agree with you that GIT is better [and be seriously now, the whole topic is full of people who complaining on the GIT way].
I'm not talking about patching, which would be MUCH harder now [because most of the patches have to be rewritten].
I'm not talking about the updating, which is a nightmare for Windows users [and I'm sorry, but 75% of the community are Windows users].
I'm not talking about the new revision [Which is idiotic, using dates? its so pathetic].
I'm talking about the whole project that was _AWESOME_.
It helped me to learn over 7 programming languages, I know C++ more than my teachers and more than my friends, It helped me a lot.
but now? I'm still using _Revision_ [yes, the old SVN Revision] 6749, as the core gets unstable and unstable.
You don't get into the core most of the patches, Arena patch for example, every new mangos user is using it, People held their core for 6 days including SD2, with averge of 150 players [e.g is the UDB Moderator, Sepiroth or however he spells his name].
Same for more and for more people.
"We are not creating an anti cheat because we does not support public server".
but as you said, you want to help people to get with larger projects, and let's say one of the people here will develope some MMORPGS, no anti cheater, so what if you don't support public server? its still _USEFUL_ for people who wants to learn C++.
but there was something you had to apply, that's the Netcode with ACE! yes, it works, WITH LINUX ONLY!
and you know that most of the people here [some devs even] are using Windows.
So Arena patch is unstable but this is stable? LOL?
The project was great, if blizzard won't kill it, the devs will do that.
