More bugging... - Either stay with your idea of "Git is the idea, git the implementation" (iff blessed by the Git Powers That Be) and be consistent about it, or just use "git" throughout. - Attribute the meaning appropiately, say by: In Linus' own words as the inventor of git: > "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. > > - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not > actually used by any common UNIX command.

Dunno about StGIT. And git and cogito have a gitk inside too. This should be mentioned, i.e., look at the package(s) you are interested and see what else they carry or require and keep in mind that (for now?) getting git as part of one package is /not/ guaranteed to be compatible with another or standard git. -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 654239 Casilla 110-V, Valparaiso, Chile Fax: +56 32 797513 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
