I guess that depends on what the question means by "you" here. ;) We have had 45 people commit at one time or another to our ansible repo, and 163 to our old puppet repo. There's 1633 people in the fedora packager group and 19857 package repos. (But some of those are dead.packaged). > * How much do you personally use it?

Thats hard to say, we don't have a central place for all of them... http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/?s=idle I suspect kernel gets updates most days. The infrastructure ansible repo gets updates most days. > * What is your favorite pro tip for using git? Always run 'git status' and 'git diff' before commiting/pushing. That can show you that you have unrelated other changes you might not want to push. kevin
