Is Git FINALLY Usable For Game Development?

Most software development relies heavily on Git as its source of version control. Unfortunately, for game development Git and its workflows typically clashes with the demands that come from a team of more than just programmers. So, I usually suggest using alternatives like Unity Version Control, or Perforce due to its features like file-locking, exclusive checkouts and advanced merge tools. Sometimes though, you can't pick your source control solution and you're stuck with Git. Enter Anchorpoint. Anchorpoint is a Git-based version control system for artists and designers that extends Git where it falls short. It is designed to work with Unity, Unreal and art assets. You can try Anchorpoint for 14 days, by connecting it with GitHub.
