I would be highly enthusiastic about Shindig moving to git. I expect
that many companies that use Shindig maintain an internal fork of the
code. I know we do. Git can make managing that kind of thing much nicer.

When I moved over to my new job I started using git for everything,

very
satisfying once you get all the pieces working together.
The git-cheatsheet http://ktown.kde.org/~zrusin/git/git-cheat-sheet.svg
has
most of what you need to know.

Hello,
On 29th of June I'll start working on Gerrit[1] project for next
three
months. I think this would be a perfect
opportunity to introduce Gerrit as part of the experimental Git
infrastructure.
In order to make this effort practical I seek for a bunch of
interested
committers willing to experiment with Gerrit as
a patch review tool. This implies that community of given project
must
be
enthusiastic on Git as whole as such
experiment will change project practices slightly and introduce Git
into
development cycle as a tool for collaboration
between comitters and contributors.
If you know any project fulfilling these requirements and willing
to
play
with Git a little bit more let me know here so
we can discuss some more details.

(incubator-)Shindig can be a reasonable candidate, out of several
reasons:
- there is extensive use of code review for patches already, so it
would
be mostly a matter of switching URLs
- I'm not so sure about effective git usage. Some people seems to be
using it, but this would need to be checked.
I'm not terribly familiar with git beyond a presentation from Linus
that I
saw a few years ago, but I'd be willing to give it a try if it
means better
integration for reviews than the current codereview.appspot.com ->
patch
ugliness.
I'm CCing shindig-dev, to see how people reacts to it.
Regards
Santiago
