Great Intro To Git

I have been asked by several folks lately in the ColdFusion community about Git. It seems that alot of the CF developers are so in-grained with SVN that they either wont consider Git or are afraid of it. Not sure which is the case. But I will say that Git has completely changed the way I look at source control. Ric Roberts has posted a really nice intro to Git that anyone interested in Git should have a look at.

Im planning to do a presentation on Git for the Online CF Meetup as soon as I get time to get the slides together so hopefully that will help de-mystify Git for some of you as well.

    June 4, 2009 at 10:20 AM Frankly I'm neither scared of Git nor so dedicated to SVN that I won't try it, but until the Git tools are better I can't smoothly integrate it into my current workflow, so it's not worth the time at this juncture. Until they have a solid plugin for Eclipse I just can't use it as effectively as I can SVN.

    I'll look forward to seeing your CFMeetup presentation on it though. Very curious to learn more about it.
