Logo by Henrik Nyh (http://henrik.nyh.se/2007/06/alternative-git-logo-and-favicon)It's no secret that Git, as a source code control tool, has become quite popular in 2008, in part boosted by the success of the socially oriented github.com Here is a list of six resources that will help you get more comfy with Git, whatever your current knowledge of the tool. Let me know if you think that, after reading these six documents, you can still point to a few stones left unturned.

Git from the bottom up


John Wiegley makes a convincing case that approaching Git from a 10,000 ft level is not the best way to understand the tool's philosophy. Rather, building your knowledge of the tool based precisely on the very concepts that it uses make it much easier to get an overall grasp of Git's world.

Using Git to Maintain Your Website


Using source code control has always been an effective tool to maintain a web site, especially avoiding these "Uh-oh I clobbered something I shouldn't have" moments. But Git is particularly well suited to this task, due to its self-sufficient nature. Daniel Miessler shows us how to do just that using Git hooks.
