Any interest in using git for scm?

[Darren Weber]

After listening to Linus Torvalds talk about git and looking at a video
tutorial from Scott Chacon, it would seem beneficial to use git for MacPorts
development.  It appears that git can be used with an existing svn
repository (man git-svn), or the svn repository could be imported into a new
master git repository (perhaps host it with github).  Is anyone currently
using git for MacPorts development?

After a few tips from MacPorts gurus and some experiments, I was able to
draft the instructions at
Create an experimental users directory in the MacPorts Subversion repository
http://trac.macports.org/wiki/CommittersTipsAndTricks

The merge process with svn takes a while to grok, but it works OK.  Is
anyone having an easier time with git?

The resources here are helpful in learning git:

Take care,
Darren
