I've just discovered fugitive.vim, which is pretty cool. However, I've run into a problem (this is using windows xp, msys git 1.7, fugitive.vim 1.1, and gvim 7.2). Adding files to the index and checking the status works just fine, but when I do a :GCommit, a command prompt flashes for a second and nothing happens. No way to type a commit...

I am developing some private projects on Github, and I would like to add nightly cronjobs to my deployments servers to pull the latest version from github.

I'd like to have some modifications that are private to my fork. How do I go about doing this? There's a question here about pushing a single commit, and the answer is to cherry-pick the commits you want to push from a private branch and put them on the main branch. However, I would like something more along the lines of ignoring a cert...

Do a merge with the 'target origin' Change the origin repo in my config file to the 'target origin' Also, if my local repo is not entirely identical to the new origin (say, I've resolved some merge conflicts in my favor), will these changes ...
I just saw the first git tutorial at http://blip.tv/play/Aeu2CAI How does git store all the versions of all the files and still be more economical in space than subversion which saves only the latest version of the code? I know this can be done using compression but that would be at the cost of speed, but this also says that git is muc...

I've been 'playing' with git on my own machine for 6 months now, and really loving it. However, I'm finding it difficult to really grok how I would use it in a team/enterprisey environment. (I'm wondering whether Eric Sink is right). I started out trying to install a git server on windows, but that didn't go too well. So I wondered ab...
I have a big repository in a shared folder. I use git from within a VM on that folder. Everything works nice, but the repository is big and git's searching through all directories and files when committing is slow. I cannot move this repository out of the shared folder. I tried to git add specific files and directories, but when I do gi...
