Yes, and they're all linked from http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:scm. I'd also like to point out that git has *excellent* man pages. The way I usually do things is to run `git status' and `git diff' to see what changes I've made. I then use `git add <filename>' to add my changes to the index. I then run `git commit' to make a commit. Then I can use `git format-patch' and/or `git send-email' to create patchfiles from my changes. `gitk' is a very useful tool for visualising changes. well, I used to do all that, but then I discovered stgit. ;) Cheers, Peter -- Peter Brett <pe...@peter-b.co.uk> Remote Sensing Research Group Surrey Space Centre _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
