Git was on the backburner for the CodePlex team for quite a while, and a couple of days ago it was finally integrated as a part of the core service. This might be a welcome addition for developers who have previous experience with distributed version control systems - those who use GitHub (it is awesome) know what I am talking about. However, developers who were working with SVN and TFS might be wondering - why and how to use Git?

Here is a set of resources to get you started.

  • Why Git is better than...
  • Using Git with CodePlex
  • Setting Up Git on Windows in Four Easy Steps
  • Git Reference
  • Git Tutorial
  • Git User's Manual

Videos:

  • Tech Talk: Linus Torvalds on git
  • Google Tech Talks: Git
  • O'Reilly Webcast: Git in One Hour
  • Google Tech Talks: Contributing with Git
  • Introduction to Git with Scott Chacon of GitHub

So if you are excited about Git, all you need to do now is either create a new open-source project and select git as the target versioning system or you could request a source control system change.
