Eclipse CDT was really bad back in the day. Slow, crashing, not smart enough but, it's very good now from my point of view. It can satisfy my needs and, I'm happy with it.

Heck, I've developed my whole Ph.D. with it and it interfaced the tools that I need to use well, was stable and fast. When I pressed a shortcut, it did the thing I expected it to do. The whole experience was, well, uneventful.

I've used Subversive IIRC during my Master's and it was uneventful too. Didn't lose any data, the plugin didn't misbehave or had any problem with it. Was using Assembla's SVN + Redmine bundle as my remote repository.

The git support was similar. I just installed it and it worked. Still works. As I said before, they've nailed the best logical view for git IMHO. IIRC, now it comes bundled with the Eclipse.

They may have done some things wrong in the past but, it's a solid IDE and I like working with it. I don't think they deserve the strong words you choose, but to each his own.

Of course, your mileage, taste and views may vary.
