Early in my career I was a junior developer on a team using SVN. I knew git and used a git plugin that let it work with SVN. I would often talk about various branches and things I was doing locally in my repository and the other developers would get concerned, because making a branch is SVN is a big deal, and here I am, it seems, making tons of branches. It was fun because when I would finally upstream my work, it would dump a dozen commits into the SVN history all within the same second. It was kind of nice having the linear history forced by SVN though.
