For those among you who may ask: why over ?

From my point of view, there is currenty no well established answers. There are several reasons for that, but the “pijulflows” are yet to be found.

Basically, pijul shines when it comes to share small changes and free you from the burden to rebase all the time.

I don’t know if pijul can be used with big projects and lots of contributors. It probably can, but we still need to figure it out.

@lthms what about those among us who may ask: why over ? (*^‿^*)

@kmicu Legit question :p. The theory is slightly different and pijul handles conflict in a more reliable way. Also, the authors avoid several performance issues of darcs because they use different algorithms. Also, pijul supports branches while darcs says: a repo *is* a branch.

@kmicu that being said, darcs is more stable, has more features and the darcsden is way better than the nest for now (but also way slower).
