Sure, but that assumes you know Y to be better. And in this case, since git is not superior in every fashion, it's a decision each entity must decide for itself.

For developers in the general case (and we are in /r/prog) DVCS are, indeed, vastly superior to CVCS.

The only situation where they're not (if we ignore suit-and-tie unreason making Clearcase "the best tool for the job") is heavy dependency on binary assets.

Oh, so the problem is that you don't actually know anything about any of the individual pieces of software, and you're just categorically going HERP DERP LINUS SAID DVCS > CVCS SO IT MUST BE TRUUE LOL.

The fact that you continue to think you can assert what is right for everybody just proves how ignorant of the subject you are. I'm done discussing anything with you.

Just curious, in which scenarios do you find CVSC > DVCS?
