Here are three out of four things which I do frequently with git repos: I look at - commits and blobs in other people's trees with gitweb, - commits in a local tree with gitk, - specific changes to source code with qgit, using it as "git blame" GUI. (The fourth thing is feeding a driver subsystem git tree at kernel.org using a minimum number of git commands. Everything else which I do with git I do so infrequently that I have to reread manuals all the time.) -- Stefan Richter -=====-=-=== ==-- =-=== http://arcgraph.de/sr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
