Can you point me a git howto?
I think you will like it. The only non-obvious concept git uses is the "stage", and you get used to it quite quickly. Google finds a lot of tutorials, here are some: http://www.vogella.de/articles/Git/article.html http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gittutorial.html http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~cduan/technical/git/ Youtube shows a lot of video tutorials as well (search for "git tutorial"). If you do a lot of work on MS Windows, mercurial is likely to be easier to handle. I can't help you with mercurial, but google should find good tutorials as well. Mercurial is almost as nice as git, only a bit slower but with better MS Windows support. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
