Very useful, thanks. Without it, we would be shutting out the 99.99% of the Linux universe who never use Git. Git is really only used by a handful of core developers -- that's who it was built for and by. Sure, there's dozens or even a couple hundred names in that handful now, but a heck of a lot more people never use git, and never should have to use git. Cheers
