One thing the command-line does well is to give names to concepts (basically, command names, option names, ...). It's easy to write in a tutorial or an email "run the command 'git foo'". It's less easy to write "click on that red button, on the right of the green one". Then, it's clear to everyone what "commit", "rebase", "amend" & so mean, regardless of the colors of buttons (that's one of the reasons I use the english words even when I speak french). That said, even when I teach the command-line, gitk is a very valuable tool to explain what the DAG is and how branching works. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- 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
