There's the directory named "Documentation" right in the root directory of the Git source tree [1]. Its subdirectories, "technical" and "howto", might be of particular interest to you. I doubt there's any "guide to the sources" though as I do not see any need for it, and I much more doubt Git developers saw any need for it either -- anyone who's supposed to delve into Git sources is supposed to possess (or gain!) a certain level of expertise to do that. Basically you start with git.c and its main() and then use your developer tool (IDE with source parsing abilities, vim + ctags, emacs + whatever, `git grep` etc) to navigate the source tree to learn about things used from that root function. 1. https://github.com/git/git/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
