Can you add a backup system options to conduit this is relly missing to the gnome desktop and your application could be the only one to permit that easily. Hello.

Im not a power user. If I could somehow pay some sysadmin money to setup a unified GNOME themed viewvc that tracked both git and bzr I would. Thats all I want - to be able to track and see what folks are up to. I wrote more about this subject here. [...] [...] I actualy dont really care what I use. Im not a power user.

That is of course providing that the GNOME solution is sufficiently attractive that people can use it instead of doing development completely offline. @daniels, I agree, I just think that there is a opportunity for GNOME to do something positive here, something like freedesktop git hosting, that (at least) maintains the current level of visibility afforded by a CVC system, while also increasing it in the situation you mention (complete off-line isolated development).

Right now, what visibility do you have into what people do locally? When X worked with CVS, instead of making lots of tiny commits, rebasing as I go, on a private branch where people could see, I didn't commit anything as it wasn't ready for the main repository. So the visibility into my private development was absolutely zero. The thing is that DVCSes don’t make this any worse. Right now, what visibility do you have into what people do locally?
