It's available for purchase or downloadable under the terms of the CC Attribution 3.0 license; some readers have already taken advantage of that license to make an epub[2] version available. Revenue from sales go to Amnesty International.

How would such chapter on Git look like? Authors of this book encourage (among others) to write new chapters. -- Jakub Narebski Poland
