How many people other than developers can handle GPG? We have office staff, graphic designers, operations and technical authors as well using SVN. About 100 people and several separate repositories.

sAMAccountName is passed through transparently from users' NT accounts using NTLM. Relationships are also very strongly enforced with access to their own workstations tied down.

Other non reasons:

1. partial checkouts.

2. Easy ACL control.

3. Great tooling for windows

4. Locking (oh the sin) - we have numerous unmergeable binary files like PSDs going in as well.

5. No problems with large bins like reference DLLs and graphics.

6. Bomb proof with a top end repo size of 14G and 100000 revs and NO problems reported.

7. Centralised commit policy. We have scripts that test check ins for stupid things people have done, bad ticket references etc.

I could go on.

It works very well for us (oh and we don't have merge tracking problems for reference).

This is one of many reasons why we still use SVN. Every commit is authenticated against our LDAP server so is technically signed against a user based on their credentials.
