Note that we almost have the tutorials for the "two very simple cases" that Linus identifies: - case #1, the "anonymous CVS" replacement: chapter 2 of user-manual.txt (the first chapter after the quick start) covers this. Perhaps in greater generality than necessary, and maybe detached heads and/or --track should be mentioned earlier. - tutorial.txt, the "how to start tracking your own project" case, starts with git-init, git-add, etc. One problem is that it's not immediately obvious which one to look at for each case. --b. - 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
