git monthly links: 2009-05

[Felipe Contreras]

Hi,

git monthly links is my attempt to gather all the links people have
been tagging as "git" in delicious.com[1] (these are not chosen by
me). It's a manual process so I might miss some links; I subscribe to
the RSS feed and go through all the links simply picking the ones
tagged the most.

The fancier blog version is here:
http://gitlog.wordpress.com/2009/06/07/git-monthly-links-2009-05/

I didn't have much time to work on this, so this is a delayed version
of May. I was unable to do this for April. I have improved the process
so hopefully this will not happen again.

Enjoy.

A list of articles the page author thinks must-read for people who begin to use git.

The first entry in the list is a 45-page article Junio wrote for a bi-monthly paper magazine published in April (it still seems to be available at Amazon.co.jp). The others are various web pages.

Sigh.  This does not begin to tell who should refrain from using msysGit.  
And it toots the horn of TortoiseGit, a tool that is meant to give you the 
illusion that Git fits inside the CVS model.

Not amused,

Heh, sounds like material for a blog post: git links rebutal, or
something. This I think should fit nicely in an official blog,
something we don't have =/

Ah, I see.

45 pages?! Maybe it's something worth translating?
