Very true and proves a genuine interest is still more than alive.
On a second note, I'll simply throw this in for now, I'm no programmer,
but I do have sysadmin skills, some front end design ability, and some
free time here and again. Jack of all master of none.

We have no CI set up yet. Maybe Travis could work. I'm not sure we even
have a test suite. We should work on that, definitely.

It sounds like a pull request is the same as checking out a file, but sort
of in reverse. The request is granted by an admin and that alerts others
that this file is being worked on and for whatever reason. This also allows
for a discussion on the merits of this work if so desired. Then

Git is not equal to Github, as Github is a web site that is hosting
projects using Git, while Git is the actual version control system.
I guess one of the biggest differences with clearcase is that git is a

Not really.
Github is built around git, which is philosophically different from Clearcase,
even if there are some similarities.

I want to add it's a good idea to make your local changes to the repo in a
git branch. As mentioned, after you make a pull request when you update the
code in your repo, the pull request will update as well. It's possible you

Hi,
I think a bit of explanation is in order to clarify (Lars please correct me if
I say something wrong).
Github workflow follows git workflow, which is very different from traditional
CVS/SVN.
Main difference is you do not "checkout" with git, but You "clone"; this means
