+Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
+=========================================================
+
+Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
+unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
+and full access to internals.
+
+Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public
+License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses,
+compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus
+Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
+
+Please read the file [INSTALL][] for installation instructions.
+
+Many Git online resources are accessible from <https://git-scm.com/>
+including full documentation and Git related tools.
+
+See [Documentation/gittutorial.txt][] to get started, then see
+[Documentation/giteveryday.txt][] for a useful minimum set of commands, and
+`Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt` for documentation of each command.
+If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
+read with `man gittutorial` or `git help tutorial`, and the
+documentation of each command with `man git-<commandname>` or `git help
+<commandname>`.
+
+CVS users may also want to read [Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt][]
+(`man gitcvs-migration` or `git help cvs-migration` if git is
+installed).
+
+The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
+mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
+requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
+[Documentation/SubmittingPatches][] for instructions on patch submission).
+To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
+the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
+available at <https://public-inbox.org/git/>,
+<http://marc.info/?l=git> and other archival sites.
+
+Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to
+the Git Security mailing list <git-security@googlegroups.com>.
+
+The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that
+list the current status of various development topics to the mailing
+list.  The discussion following them give a good reference for
+project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
+
+The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very
+first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker"
+and the name as (depending on your mood):
+
+ - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
+   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
+   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
+ - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
+   dictionary of slang.
+ - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
+   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
+ - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
