Here are three out of four things which I do frequently with git repos: I look at
- commits and blobs in other people's trees with gitweb,
- commits in a local tree with gitk,
- specific changes to source code with qgit, using it as "git blame" GUI.
(The fourth thing is feeding a driver subsystem git tree at kernel.org using a minimum number of git commands. Everything else which I do with git I do so infrequently that I have to reread manuals all the time.) -- Stefan Richter -=====-=-=== ==-- =-=== http://arcgraph.de/sr/
