Git Book

This weekend I finished reviewing Pragmatic Version Control Using Git by Travis Swicegood. If you are a git user or interested in learning about the latest in version control for your source code, check it out. The book is available in beta now.

  • Gary, the book URL is broken. It conists of doubled http://

    Thanks for the ann. Looks like an interesting book and I’m a fun of git :-)

    Fixed – thanks. That’s what I “git” for using a fancy text edit widget instead of vim for composing blog posts.

  • Thanks for the mention, Gary!

  • Tim Johnston says:

    What about using GIT for GIS data? GIST? :-)

  • Gary Sherman says:

    Git has been used for all kinds of “backup” purposes. You could use it to version your GIS data, but since most of it will be binary you’ll be storing full copies of the file contents with each commit.

    For KML and GML it would work as well as for source code…
