Sorry if this is not the appropriate forum for the question. How long does it take to get used to using git? I have never used a version control system and I don''t want to go through the pain much longer. Thanks in advance.

Well I came from a basic experience with Subversion but it only took me about a week to get a handle on the basic pull-change-commit-push cycle. You might also want to look at the git website for documentation and tutorials. http://git-scm.com/documentation Regards, James On 28/12/2009 6:02 p.m., pepe wrote:> Sorry if this is not the appropriate forum for the question. > > How long does it take to get used to using git?

Instead of reading you could also watch some really screencasts: (free) www.gitcasts.com (a lot of topics from basics to mastery) (paid) http://peepcode.com/products/git ($9.00) for a 1h video which teaches you the basics and some advanced topics Cheers, Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Most of us learned it with a background in subversion or some other SCM, and while there are lots of similarities, there are subtle differences which can trip you up. Along with the other resources there''s the git community book http://book.git-scm.com/ And Scott Chacon''s pro-git book from Apress which is also available on-line as soft copy http://progit.org/book/ I''ve found Scott to be one of the best explainers of Git. -- Rick DeNatale Blog: http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/RickDeNatale WWR: http://www.workingwithrails.com/person/9021-rick-denatale LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/rickdenatale -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
