 eh. a lot of the tech they teach you in school isn’t necessarily gonna be used in real jobs anyway. e.g. we use TortoiseSVN at my job(🤮) and a ton of legacy libraries. so my years of modern tech experience? useless. the best skill is learning on the job

exactly! 80% of what you learn in school won’t directly translate into what you do on the job, but it gives you the skills to learn at work and keep up

My professor just likes using it. It’s not so much as teaching svn, but we just used it for version control. We would all have our own git equivalent “branch” and merge it into the trunk. It’s old and outdated but not really that different.

It’s much simpler. Honestly probably makes sense over git for many use cases.

Though it’s very different than git seeing as it’s not distributed. But honestly a lot of people don’t understand the fact that git is distributed anyway.
