I've been doing a few one-on-one sessions at iXsystems explaining the
git model to developers and have had much success.
Tomorrow at BAFUG
(http://www.meetup.com/BAFUG-Bay-Area-FreeBSD-User-Group/events/144351492/)
I will be doing a quick talk on git and then doing a breakaway session
on managing large projects using git.
This week Alfred Perlstein will have a GIT talk for FreeBSD users, and
offer a 1-2 hour demo in a break awayfor people interested in doing a
hands-on GIT experience managing a large project.
We will cover migration of your FreeBSD customizations based on one
version of FreeBSD to another FreeBSD version. Specifically, Alfred
will be doing a hands-on using "rebasing", to do this migration.
To participate, all that needs to be done is to have run "git clone
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd"; beforehand (as this takes about 30
minutes).
In addition, a computer with wi-fi or some internet connection to
github.com <http://github.com/> is needed.
As a prerequisite, it is expected that you have some understanding of
"patch(1)" and "diff(1)".
There will be no recording allowed and the format will allow only for
short discussion and no derailing. Discussion of other SCM tools is
only appropriate in the context of understanding what we are doing in
git. Advocacy of other SCM tools will not be tolerated. If you can
not abide by these rules you will be asked to leave the session.
The workshop will mostly focus on "git rebase" of a large project,
however we may cover a few other areas depending on how much progress we
make in the 1-2 hours we set aside.
Again, if you want to participate, show up on time and make sure you
have a git clone of freebsd already made!
-Alfred
