I'd like to try out a distributed revision control system. I use a couple Windows PCs, a couple PCs with Linux, and a Mac. On windows, I'd like to use Tortoise.

However, a strictly command-line based app can be a little intimidating. I've followed the TortoiseGit project for a little while, and it looks like they are past 1.0. Is there anyone usin...

It's a near standard layout, with a config containing fetch, branche...

I'm planning to start collaborating with a friend on one of the projects, and will be shifting the repository to my own website. I've read a lot of "git beats SVN!" posts over the last couple years, and figured I ought to at least s...
