I've found plenty of examples of how it works, but none of how to work *with* it. e.g A programmer has 3 main directory hierarchies he wishes to control. Do all 3 go in one repository? Where does that repository reside? Local? Remote? Does one need to check in /out etc - I'm sure its out there but its hard to find beneath all the explanations tend to concentrate on that which the user doesn't generally care about such as how git stores "blobs" and how it hashes file names etc. This is a start but is svn orientated, but any other pointers appreciated preferably without svn and only using git. http://www.simplicidade.org/notes/archives/2008/06/how_projects_us.html ,---- | The best articles about distributed version control systems for me, are | not those who explain the internals and the user interface, but how | specific projects use those tools to get things done. `----
