It is based on "View Text Results" page: http://www.survey.net.nz/members.php?page=results&qn=1304 We have around 445 individual responses, as compared to (I think) 115 answers (Base = 115) for previous survey. That is quite a bit. 04. Which programming languages are you proficient with? It losk like there is only 3/4 people proficient in Perl as compared to Python; it looks like Python is more popular. C is most popular, with only a few (if everything is all right with the results page) people proficient in Tcl/Tk. I'm sorry, git-gui and gitk guys; it looks like not many developers... 19. How do you obtain GIT? Around twice as many people use binary packages as source tarball (or source package, I think). Around half the people compiles its own git (pull is also followed by compilation). 26. Which porcelains do you use? Most people use core-git, some use cogito (the fact that it was lately deprecated and is no longer developed notwithstanding), some use StGIT, 3 even use pg (despite it is unmaintained). More people use StGIT than Guilt, but this can be cause by the fact that Guilt (formerly gq) is younger. Quite a bit use own scripts. 8 choose other... and there is no "what other" question, unfortunately... 28. Which (main) git web interface do you use for your projects? Most use gitweb (which is distributed with git), 7 use cgit, 1 wit (Ruby), most probably XMMS2 project, 1 git-php (I wonder who...), and there are 20 "other" answers, which I am most curious about. What are they? 39. Did you participate in previous Git User's Survey? 43 people did out of 368 who answered this question, out of 115 who did participate in the previous survey. Bit curious. 55. Would commerical (paid) support from a support vendor be of interest to you/your organization? Only 44 answers yes, 217 no, 126 not applicable (which was menat to encompass people who do not use git for work). -- Jakub Narebski Poland
