It's normal for an organisation to have a collection of logos to choose from, with one 'official' version. For example, a black and white version is useful for print. Similarly, it's useful to have a couple of different contrast level/colours that can be used in the appropriate situations. I think it is fair to say that the red version is the one people recognise as 'git' and so should be kept as the official version. There is nothing wrong with having alternates that have been approved for various situations. I recommend creating a git repository called git-resources, git-marketing, or git-assets, to contain the various approved logos. If there is not another location, or a more appropriate one, https://github.com/git would be a good place to put this. Regards, Andrew Ardill (I'm always concerned about making useless contributions to conversations like this, but I think having a specific location for resources like the logo will be very valuable). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
