Just do ... Git

My latest task at the company is to support (and carry out) the migration of our codebase (significant amount of code in ~100+  software modules/projects) from CVS to Git.

This is expected to go a seamless as possible without affecting the current work of the whole department (30+ devs) so I needed a whole arsenal to tips an tricks to do this, but it seems that things are starting to take shape.

Together with this migration we also decided to move from legacy Hudson to Jenkins, and from legacy file-share based artifact repository to Nexus...just to keep things interesting...

...so the new Year comes with new gear(s) ... Git and his friends... beginning of a new era at the company... and who knows ...maybe at some point we might go wild and switch to Maven or Gradle :)
...but until than the trusty Ant and Ivy will keep things flowing.
