--- Comment #23 from Benedict Reuschling <bcr@FreeBSD.org> ---
We won't be recommending other tools besides git at this point. It's the same
discussion for the jails chapter: there is a way described how to do it
manually and then there are the jail managers developed by various people.
Adding all (?) of them to the handbook just increases the maintenance burden.
Instead, we describe one tool (in this case: git) in the process. There are
others, but we can't list them all with their quirks, even if they might work.
People are free to use their own way of doing things, but don't expect that we
will blow up the chapter to list all of the alternatives. That is beside the
point and distracts the reader from actually getting the job that the chapter
is about done.
