About the Software

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

Usage

Placing a directory under GIT revision control would involve the following commands:

$ mkdir 
$ cd 
$ git init # initialize git w/i this directory

One can then proceed to manipulate files within the directory as so:

$ git add . # adds files w/i the current directory
$ git commit # commits changes 
$ git status # lists files that have been modified
$ git diff  # lists changes made to given file
$ # grab repo from remote location, assuming
$ # a 'git init' was executed in the directory first:
$ git pull ssh://[user@]host/~user/path/to/repo
