Hey Git Users! I wrote a Git book awhile ago, and I've recently released the entire thing for free at http://rypress.com/tutorials/git/index.html. It covers a lot of the basic concepts that beginners ask about on this list, so I thought it would be a helpful future reference for everyone.
If Thomas, Konstantin, Dale, John, or any of the other regular posters had some time to look at it, feedback would be greatly appreciated (topics you would like to see added, custom configurations that you use everyday, etc). Hope you're all having a happy new year! Ryan --
