Git IS fast!

If you happened to catch all of the fuss about Git lately, you might also have heard Linus Torvalds bragging about it (literally bragging). And you might have, like me, dismissed it as another of those linux against the world moments (as a side note: nothing against linux, using ubuntu, freebsd, and osx myself atm.).

Well the win32 native binaries went out not long ago, and i gave it a try, it didn’t take long until Linus Torvalds’ image in my mind jumped a few steps, everything he bragged about was true, Git IS THAT GOOD.

I’m now considering doing what i always planned but never had the guts to do – version my entire /work area, which might include documents, media, _and_ code.

Anyone unfamiliar with Git, its a new open-source distributed versioning system (like bazaar, mercurial), here are some links:

Get it, understand it, remember it, try hosting it here and here.
