I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but will this GLEP update or replace this existing Wiki article on using git w/ Gentoo?: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_git_workflow Some of the step-by-step bits in the above Wiki page look like good candidates to be integrated into the GLEP. It also contains guidelines on writing commit messages, such as limiting the first line to ~50 characters, an optional body wrapped at 75 chars/line, and including the usual git tags for sign-off and such. Though, I like the explicitness of the GLEP's text on a few things more. -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS ku...@gentoo.org 6144R/F5C6C943 2015-04-27 177C 1972 1FB8 F254 BAD0 3E72 5C63 F4E3 F5C6 C943 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
