Nope. Damn. And why not? Because there was not a link on the Emacs Wiki for Git interfaces. And it didnt turn up in my basic Google. http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Git :-( > > It aims to be a common emacs front end for most distributed version > control systems. Thanks for the pointer. I'll take a look. I like common interfaces. There's enough key strokes to remember in emacs as it is. But I must say emacs-git impresses me the more I play with it. And git itself just seems to be a solution that was waiting for a problem to invent it. It's simply "nice and clean" from what i can gather of it. regards r. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
