Re: Partnership with Git
Dov, Junio, Konstantin Thank you for answering. Your information helped me! And thank you Git Community for so quick and clear replies. We wish you all the best from Devart team =) Best regards Nikita Malikov Best regards Nikita Malikov -- From: "Junio C Hamano" <gits...@pobox.com> Sent: 21 February, 2017 21:04 To: "Dov Grobgeld" <dov.grobg...@gmail.com> Cc: "Nikita Malikov" <niki...@devart.com>; "Konstantin Khomoutov" <kostix+...@007spb.ru>; <git@vger.kernel.org> Subject: Re: Partnership with Git Dov Grobgeld <dov.grobg...@gmail.com> writes: As git is free software, you are free to use it in any way you see fit, as long as you adhere to its licensing terms, and to the copyright restrictions on using the term "git". Thus there is no need to ask permission and there does not on the git side exist any entity interested in "cross marketing activities". s/copyright/trademark/. As one of Software Freedom Conservancy projects, I suspect that the Git PLC g...@sfconservancy.org may be the closest to such "entity" that represents open source Git community's interest to the outside world with help from lawyers. Not that I think Git PLC is interested in such a cross marketting arrangement, but if Devart wants to advertise on their webpage saying "we support Git by making contributions to SFC" or something like that, they are the people to talk to.
Re: Partnership with Git
Konstantin, My goal is to establish partnership relations with Git because some of Devart's products support Git version control system (for example dbForge Studio for SQL Server https://www.devart.com/dbforge/sql/studio/). My team and I would be glad to come up with cross-marketing activities between Devart and Git. We think that some users of our development products would be interested to switch to Git version control system.

Git is a free software volunteer project and as such, it has no "executive staff" in the sense enterprises put into it. Can you maybe state your actual goals please? Say, if you're looking for commercial support, we could possibly suggests a couple of pointers.
