For anyone who wants to try out Git, here's a couple of good resources. The first is a cheat sheet, I keep that one handy:
http://ktown.kde.org/~zrusin/git/git-cheat-sheet-medium.png The second is a presentation (PDF document) given out by Scott Chacon at RailsConf 2008. No Rails knowledge necessary, and while it's 523 (!) slides long, most of these are just quick transition that show you different Git commands in action. I read it through in 15 minutes, and it's the best presentation I've seen that explains the difference between merge and rebase, and how Git branching and indexes work: http://en.oreilly.com/rails2008/public/asset/attachment/2816 Also a quick reminder. There's talk about, but so far no official Apache Git repository (yet). So one option is using git-svn against the SVN repository. A few of us set up personal Git repositories that mirror SVN, so you can clone those, just keep in mind that these are personal -- not Apache -- repositories. Assaf
