Re: Is it worth leaving el-get for melpa

[Deric Bytes]

Thanks Drew. There wiki has no dates, so I never know how relevant it is. Also, 
I knew about those differences when choosing el-get but wondered if anything 
had changed. I had recently looked at el-get and noticed that the core lisp 
code seemed unchanged for 2 years.

And noticed that melpa had some git fetcher tags

https://github.com/melpa/melpa

:fetcher specifies the type of repository that :url or :repo points to. Melpa 
supports git, github, gitlab, hg (Mercurial), and wiki (for packages from 
Emacswiki.org).
