  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.

[ANNOUNCE] Git homepage change

[Petr Baudis]

  Hi,

  thanks for the changes, Scott!

  Based on the previous feedback of other developers and my last review
of git-scm.com, I have changed git.or.cz to redirect to git-scm.com.

  The wiki is still hosted at the original place for the time being, as
well as the man/ gitbot redirect. To reach the original manpage, use
http://git.or.cz/index.html.

  Have a fun year,

Just wondering, why don't you use the -s option of git shortlog in
./script/get_authors.sh?

I mean:

diff --git a/script/get_authors.sh b/script/get_authors.sh

+git shortlog -s -n > ../gitscm/config/authors.txt

I suppose fixing up the ruby part after this is not that hard, sadly I
don't speak Ruby myself, so I have no idea where and what to touch. ;-)

Err, --no-merges still makes sense, so probably this one would be
better:

Done.

FWIW, I think the "mascot" or whatever it is supposed to be, on the
top right end, is "safe", trademark/copyright-wise. It looks too much
like どーもくん(Dômo-kun), the NHK mascot.

I bought rights to the image from iStockPhoto, we can use it online
for whatever we want to.  The only restriction is that we can't sell
stuff with the image on it. I have no idea what NHK is, nor do I know
how TM/copyright issues would work in this regard - (the site is
hosted in the US, has NHK registered TM for that here?) - but I doubt
it really matters.  If I get a cease and desist, I'll replace the
image, but to me it doesn't seem close enough to infringe and I doubt
they would care.

Btw, I would also like to say in general that the response to this
from emails sent to me personally (my address is at the bottom of the
page) has been very positive and I've even received a few patches that
are now live.

Also, Miklos : your patch changes the format of the output and doesn't
speed things up or anything, so I'm just sticking with the current
script for now (unless I'm missing something).

Boyd Gerber: I'm confused - the mailing list archive link on the home
page points to the Gmane page, which is completely up to date.  Is
there a link I'm missing?

Thanks,
Scott

NHK are the public broadcaster in Japan, and Domo-kun is their mascot.
Apparently the NHK spots with Domo-kun are also used in the US on
Nickelodeon. It's like the NBC peacock, or the BBC test card girl:
instantly recognizable to anyone who watched that channel.

And yes, there is a US trademark:
http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=3pcqf.6.1

No connection to NHK at all, but I thought you'd used Domo
deliberately when I first saw that logo, so got curious. The site is
great, btw.

Cheers,
Baz

I think the patch just makes things simpler (why not using -s if you
then later use grep to drop what -s would hide?), and Adeodato's patch
updates the ruby part as well. But of course it's up to you. ;-)

This is the link

You can also ask the Git community directly at our git@vger.kernel.org

I don't think you should blame Scott for this, it seem to be a gmane vs
mail-archive issue, and gmane is mentioned already in MaintNotes.

I was not sure who/what/where to make a not of this.  I think it would be 
good if we could get a link to the various archives.  During an update of 
my system, a file was changed that cause email to me to be bounced.  I did 
not relealize it.  I was trying to find archived.  I thought I would start 
with our new main page.  I had to do google searches to finally find an 
archive.  The only problem is I have not figured out how to download all 
303 articles, quickly/easily.  You would think one of the majordomo 
commands to get articles would work.  They do not.

I thought I should remport my finding and see if anyone knew or could make 
changes to make it easier for us to find the archives.

Thanks,

-8<-
git log --pretty=short --no-merges | git shortlog -n | grep -v -e '^ ' | grep ':' > ../gitscm/config/authors.txt

    data = author.split(' ')
    number = data.pop.gsub('(', '').gsub(')', '').chomp
    name = data.join(' ')
-8<-

vs

-8<- v2 -8<-
git shortlog --no-merges -sn > ../gitscm/config/authors.txt

    if author =~ /(\d+)\s+(.+)/
        name, number = $2, $1
-8<-

HTH.

P.S.: And it is a tad faster, yes (not that that should be the primary
criteria).

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Git homepage change

On the footer we have:
"Source for this website was forked from Petr Baudis's git.or.cz"

The link git.or.cz should be changed to git.or.cz/index.html to avoid
confusion for newcomers.

git-scm.com is a very good page for "git quick start".

Thanks, that is a good catch - I just updated this.

Also the mail list archive should really point to a valid archive.  2005 
is really old.

There were a couple of other pages under git.or.cz that may still be 
linked elsewhere (e.g., the "external patches" page and the SVN crash 
course). It would be nice if permanent redirects were added from those 
pages to their new homes (so that existing links on the web wind up in 
the right place).
