Dear Twincling member, The next Twincling Saturday Meet would be on Git and Gitolite by Sitaram Chamarty, on Sat, November 14th, 2009 at 4:15pm
Git is a distributed version control system that has been around for a few years now. It is very fast and stable. While early adopters to git faced a steep learning curve, a number of tutorials and user friendly commands, including a bunch of GUIs, and plugins for various IDEs etc., have now made using git easy. However, Git is different enough in its basic concepts that people who have never used a VCS seem to understand it faster, compared to people who have used some other VCS extensively. This talk will hopefully be useful to both kinds of developers. Gitolite is a user-management layer on top of git written in perl, inspired by the somewhat venerable "gitosis". Gitolite adds a lot more features as well as extensive documentation. For more information about Git, visit http://git-scm.com/ Speaker Profile Sitaram Chamarty works for TCS, in Hyderabad. He is a fairly technical person, a self-confessed Linux and open source evangelist for about 15 years. Although somewhat rusty now, he also used to be a Perl expert. He started learning git about 18 months ago for use on one of his internal projects, and was hooked.
