I am a new user of git and SCMs in general , I have learned a lot from the docs , irc and just using it , but there are just some concepts that hare hard to grasp , I am a very visual persion (probably like a lot of you :) ) , is there a screencast of git somewhere (for free) that can demonstrate some of the advanced features of git... (Also...I have seen both Randal (Schwartz) and Linus' (you better know his last name) presentations at google on git , in which they explain the ideas behind git more than the actual usage,
The thing that helped me and my co-workers the most was running through the steps of the tutorial, but stopping every time something wasn't absolutely crystal clear and doing gitk or qgit (I prefer qgit, since it seems to display things more consistently and also loads faster). That primarily helped us get branches under control. We came from a CVS world and never had any branches, as none of us had time or energy to figure out how to merge them back together using those crippled scm's. I noticed Johannes Gilger already sent you the link to git-for-scientists thing which is also a really good aid, especially when you've read the tutorial and some of the less tech-oriented docs. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@xxxxxx OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 - 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
