Official? There is nothing official about it. "Unofficial git blog", or "A git developer blog" (or "A git follower blog"; unfortunately names like gitter or gitster for git power user's, like TeXnician for TeX users, are taken by nicknames on #git, if I remember correctly). Only git maintainer (Junio Hamano) and git development community (the git mailing list) can decide that something is "official" resource. Second, I am a bit curious about 49 in "Git weekly news: 2008-49" name of the post. Third, it is collection of links, not news[1]. [1] It would be nice if somebody resurrected GitTraffic, offshot of now defunct KernelTraffic, or at least helped to write Git articles for KernelTrap (which currently is in a bit of hiatus). > > But here are the links anyway.

Might be not as important as article about Gitosis, because 1.) you can do this by hand, 2.) there are alternate tools, like Piston, Giston -> Braid. > Work with Git from Emacs > http://xtalk.msk.su/~ott/en/writings/emacs-vcs/EmacsGit.html Very good article, presenting various Emacs modules to work with Git. Currently as far as I know not present on Git Wiki, but present on 'Git' page on Emacs Wiki. > > It's Magit!

I would probably create some rule in Makefile and use "make publish" or something, which would push the chages _and_ update page, or use post-update hook for that using some 'git-export' equivalent.
