This time the links where not really from this week, but they will be on the next iterations. Somebody could pick the relevant links and add them in the wiki. >> The blog post is here: >> http://gitlog.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/git-weekely-news-2008-49/ > > First, "Official git blog"?

I asked in the mailing list and the only comment I got was: go ahead. So yeah, that doesn't look like an "official" blessing, but it's not bad either. Anyway, my idea is that many gitsters will participate on this blog, it's not my personal blog, I already have one.

I'm subscribed to the RSS feed and saving the ones that appear a lot. In fact I don't like some of them, but that's what the "public" finds interesting. >> Why Git is Better than X >> http://whygitisbetterthanx.com/ > > Quite good link from what I superficially checked, present in > GitComparison wiki page. > >> >> GitTorrent, The Movie >> http://www.advogato.org/article/994.html > > This article is so full of bad information, exaggeration and > hyperbole, that it would be better to forget about it, and not put it > in the list.

Right, but it is to many people. <snip/> Thanks for the comments, but gathering all these links is already taking me more time that I wished. > I have a host of links to blog posts with git or distributed version > control info bookmarked... My objective is to do this weekly. Maybe I'll put the links in a git repo so people can see them before I make the post. Would you find that useful? As an example of possible links for next week: My RubyGems development tools and workflow http://drnicwilliams.com/2008/12/05/my-rubygems-development-tools-and-workflow/ Pushr, or the application will deploy itself http://www.restafari.org/pushr-or-the-application-will-deploy-itself.html -- Felipe Contreras -- 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
