Git, learning or improving, there’s always something new

Here’s a few useful resources for learning more about git.

http://gitready.com/ looks like a really great open-source/community maintained tips & walkthrough site.

http://git-scm.com/documentation has a nice selection, and will be more complete & updated than this.

A great presentation video from one of GitHub’s founders.

A couple of nice books with free pdfs available on the website (at time of writing):

For the designer in your life: Version control for designers. I haven’t read this but the title is alluring, as that’s why I’ve ended up posting this at all.

And if you want to visualise the commit tree or do easy commit/amend commit on OS X, so far I’m still using (a very old version of) GitX. There are newer apps, ones bundled with git, github’s mac client, but I’ve found no need to change. I prefer working in the terminal, and only use the gui for commit tree visualisation & lazy committing.
