Hi, oops, so I decided to unbundle this question from the previous post, but forgot to modify the subject line... When the git-scm.com site gets refined a bit further, it might make a lot of sense to make http://git.or.cz/index.html a redirect to http://git-scm.com/ and thus delegate the new site to the official Git homepage. Of course, I would be transferring the control of the homepage from my hands so I would like to poll the community about how do people feel about this - opinion of core Git contributors would be especially welcome; I find myself rather happy with the new site, so I will implicitly take silence as an agreement. Here is a breakdown of possible pros and cons that come on my mind: + The new site has much nicer and more catchy design. + The new site seems to have a lot of potential to grow to a rather comprehensive resource. + The new site would probably have much more active maintainer. ;-) - The new site is affiliated with a commercial entity - GitHub. The website maintainer also has commercial interest in some published Git learning materials, which might generate certain conflict of interests; we must trust them that they handle this well. - Both GitHub and Scott seem to be rather distanced from the "core" Git development community. This might or might not be an issue. - The new site is implemented in much more complicated way than the old one, having a full-fledged Ruby on Rails machinery behind it and linking to bunch of obfuscated JavaScript code; I don't think it's that big a deal, though. The negatives section writeup is longer, but in fact I think the positives win here; I also have a bit of bad conscience about not giving git.or.cz the amount of time it would deserve... P.S.: To simplify matters, I talk only about index.html, but of course it would make sense to transfer both the SVN Crash Course _AND_ the Git Wiki along; we might keep the Cogito homepage for purely historical interest too, I don't know. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis As in certain cults it is possible to kill a process if you know its true name. -- Ken Thompson and Dennis M.
