Git Book
Off topic, Open Source October 1st, 2008
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.

What about using GIT for GIS data? GIST?

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…
