It features "Companies & Projects Using Git" at the bottom. Not "supporting" but "using". Linux is point 10 on that list. The first 6 items are Google, facebook, Microsoft, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Netflix. Even for an OpenSource project that does not buy into the Free Software philosophy, that is a mostly embarrassing list of companies to advertise for. Personally, I consider the recent migration of the Emacs repository to Git a bigger endorsement but then that's me. It might make sense to reduce this list just to "Projects" since those are actually more tangible and verifiable. Or scrap it altogether. -- David Kastrup -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
