I think that link to "Git Community Book" (http://book.git-scm.com) on Git
Documentation page (http://git-scm.com/documentation) got replaced by the
link to "Pro Git" book; I guess becaue the former is not finished and it
doesn't look like it would be finished soon.

From Gitosis and Gitolite, both git repository management tools, Gitosis
requires setuptools beside Python, and looks like it is not developed
anymore, while Gitolite (which started as rewrite of Gitosis in Perl)
requires only Perl and is actively developed.
Nb. even Gitosis author recommends Gitolite:

Update (12-12-2010): For additional features not present in gitosis,
check out gitolite.

Yes, GitHub:FI (this one proprietary), Gitorious (powering gitorious.org),
InDefero, Gitblit and Girocco + gitweb (the last one powering http://repo.or.cz)
are all full-fledged git hosting sites, with web interface to view and
manage repositories.
