Sort of off topic of this thread, but even though I've used SVN for years,
the idea of running it locally without a server never occurred to me. I
thought 'distributed repositories' was Git's only/main benefit over SVN,
but if you have a local repository, I'm guessing you can work/commit
locally, then svn switch to your remote/work repository to commit to the
shared/compay repo? Is that right?
