<br>
In keeping with the tradition of 3-letter presentations (CSS, Vim, SQL,
er, HTM), I'll talk abut Git [1], the distributed version control
system. Git was originally developed by Linus Torvalds for the Linux
kernel [2] and is licensed under GPL2. It's become popular in Rails
development as well, especially with the hosted site GitHub.com.
Similar to Mercurial [3] or Bazaar [4], Git is a DVCS [5] - a
distributed (or Decentralized) version control system or revision
control system. DVCSes introduce an easier way to work on shared
project. We'll talk about how DVCSes work and Git in particular, look
at some of the available references [6], handy cheatsheets [7], and
sites to host your DVCS [8].<br>
<br>
As always, we'll have some time for introductions, job postings, folks
looking for work, questions and hopefully answers.<br>
<br>
Hope to see you there.<br>
