  sure - I just need to be prodded about it, as I said. ;-)

  hmm... I'm really busy before the end of the year, but this should
take just a really short while by now, so let's see if there are still
some nits:

	"$ git clone git://github.com/git/hello-world.git" on the
frontpage overflows from the box for me, and so does "git commit -m
'Initial commit'" in the other box. I work on smallish notebook with
1024x768 resolution, but there are still wide white stripes on the
sides.

	Mention FAQ in the "Got a question?" box?

	Migrate the SVN crash course to git-scm.com too? Would make
sense, imho. Or maybe we can just throw it on the wiki.

	Has anyone reviewed " Pragmatic Version Control Using Git by
Travis Swicegood " if we advertise it on the homepage? I remember
looking at some very early preview and feeling quite uncomfortable
about it. Mentioning a book on the homepage is some kind of an
endorsement.

	Merge "Multimedia" into "Videos"?

	I'm wondering if the "Related Tools" section shouldn't get a
kind of facelift (as e.g. by now imho people are perceiving gitk,
git-gui and gitweb all as integral git components, you might want to
mention TopGit instead of Cogito, etc.) and the 4x4 format is probably
not too appropriate (the hosting sites aren't a natural fit there, and I
chose it originally only to reduce the vertical length of the
single-page homepage). But that's certainly not a blocking issue for the
redirect.
