A successful Git branching model » nvie.com. Note of reflection (March 5, 2020)This model was conceived in 2010, now more than 10 years ago, and not very long after Git itself came into being. In those 10 years, git-flow (the branching model laid out in this article) has become hugely popular in many a software team to the point where people have started treating it like a standard of sorts — but unfortunately also as a dogma or panacea.During those 10 years, Git itself has taken the world by a storm, and the most popular type of software that is being developed with Git is shifting more towards web apps — at least in my filter bubble.

Web apps are typically continuously delivered, not rolled back, and you don't have to support multiple versions of the software running in the wild.This is not the class of software that I had in mind when I wrote the blog post 10 years ago.

Pros: With streams, you do not need to know the type of the object you are printing. You do not have problems with format strings not matching the argument list.

(Though with gcc, you do not have that problem with printf either.) Streams have automatic constructors and destructors that open and close the relevant files. Cons: Streams make it difficult to do functionality like pread(). Decision: Do not use streams, except where required by a logging interface. There are various pros and cons to using streams, but in this case, as in many other cases, consistency trumps the debate.

Extended Discussion There has been debate on this issue, so this explains the reasoning in greater depth. Proponents of streams have argued that streams are the obvious choice of the two, but the issue is not actually so clear. Cout << this; // Prints the address cout << *this; // Prints the contents.
