It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. + +Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. +See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see +Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, +and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. +CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. + +Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ +including full documentation and Git related tools. + +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. 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 +http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. + +The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in +git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and +the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good +reference for project status, development direction and +remaining tasks. |
