Distributed model for bundles (was: [TxMt] Bundle and language help)

[Jeremy Wilkins]

Without wishing to turn this into a which scm is best discussion, git  
isn't the easiest system for non-technical users to learn - it is  
aimed at power users. You may end up with a situation where using the  
version control is harder then creating the bundle. I've not used  
mercurial much but I know thats meant to be simpler than git, I have  
used bzr which i've found dead simple and quite like subversion, and  
it branches happily from subversion. I'm sure theres other  
possibilities.
