There's no link for i= t > where I was looking: http://git-scm.com/documentation 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 t= he link to "Pro Git" book; I guess becaue the former is not finished and i= t doesn't look like it would be finished soon.

Any reason why? =46rom Gitosis and Gitolite, both git repository management tools, Gito= sis 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: http://scie.nti.st/2007/11/14/hosting-git-repositories-the-easy-and-sec= ure-way Update (12-12-2010): For additional features not present in gitosis, check out gitolite. =20 > Question 3: So, Gitorious is more than just a repository hosting > website? It's also an open source repository hosting platform, which > powers the Gitorious website? That's pretty cool. Yes, GitHub:FI (this one proprietary), Gitorious (powering gitorious.or= g), InDefero, Gitblit and Girocco + gitweb (the last one powering http://re= po.or.cz) are all full-fledged git hosting sites, with web interface to view and manage repositories. --=20 Jakub Narebski Poland
