There's no link for it > where I was looking: http://git-scm.com/documentation I think that link to "Git Community Book" (http://book.git-scm.com) on Git Documentation page (http://git-scm.com/documentation) got replaced by the link to "Pro Git" book; I guess becaue the former is not finished and it doesn't look like it would be finished soon.

Any reason why? >From Gitosis and Gitolite, both git repository management tools, Gitosis requires setuptools beside Python, and looks like it is not developed anymore, while Gitolite (which started as rewrite of Gitosis in Perl) requires only Perl and is actively developed. Nb. even Gitosis author recommends Gitolite: http://scie.nti.st/2007/11/14/hosting-git-repositories-the-easy-and-secure-way Update (12-12-2010): For additional features not present in gitosis, check out gitolite. > Question 3: So, Gitorious is more than just a repository hosting > website?

Yes, GitHub:FI (this one proprietary), Gitorious (powering gitorious.org), InDefero, Gitblit and Girocco + gitweb (the last one powering http://repo.or.cz) are all full-fledged git hosting sites, with web interface to view and manage repositories. -- Jakub Narebski Poland -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
