That's one valid approach. I or you might have taken a different
avenue,
but after all, it's his book, not mine, not yours, nor git list's
book.
Funnily enough, he chose to title it the "Git Community Book". Hard to
match Scott's enthusiasm; this is the second major initiative we've
seen from him in the last few days (the other being git-scm.com
itself) which to the casual onlooker might look like the "official"
Git homepage and documentation, but in both cases development occurred
behind the scenes and the list was only notified after the fact.
Better late than never I suppose.
We originally hoped (well, at least I did) that Scott's effort on
his book
might help us in improving the User Manual as well, but the approach
seems
to make it unlikely. But that is nothing to hold against him --- he
is
doing his own thing in a way he feels is the best, and that's
perfectly
fine. We lost nothing, perhaps except for a chance to cooperate a bit
better and to widen the community.
Even though there might not be an automated way to get changes back
from the fork, if there are clear improvements made then there is at
least no legal obstacle to incorporating them back in, the only
obstacle would be time and willingness to do so manually.
Cheers,
Wincent
