Hi, git monthly links is my attempt to gather all the links people have been tagging as "git" in delicious.com[1] (these are not chosen by me). It's a manual process so I might miss some links; I subscribe to the RSS feed and go through all the links simply picking the ones tagged the most. Previously I was doing this on a weekly basis but I decided there where too few links per week so now I'll be trying with monthly links, let's see how it goes. The fancier blog version is here: http://gitlog.wordpress.com/2009/02/01/git-monthly-links-2009-01/ == Hot == This month was overwhelmed by git ready, a site devoted to share all kinds of tips for git. I'm grouping these together as well as other hugely popular links. git ready: daily tips for the noob to the guru http://gitready.com/ branching and merging http://gitready.com/beginner/2009/01/25/branching-and-merging.html zsh git status http://gitready.com/advanced/2009/01/28/zsh-git-status.html visualizing your repo http://gitready.com/intermediate/2009/01/13/visualizing-your-repo.html My Git Workflow Michael Ivey explains his choice of git, how he uses it and loves it. http://gweezlebur.com/2009/01/19/my-git-workflow.html An Illustrated Guide to Git on Windows Very complete instructions to use git on windows (with nice screenshots). http://nathanj.github.com/gitguide/index.html == Other links == Fine.
