[Koha-devel] Got Git? We do!

Hi folks,

Well, it's official, we've moved the version control for Koha from
CVS, hosted on Savannah, to a fully distributed system, running Git
(http://git.or.cz/). Git is the same version control system used by
the Linux Kernel and was originally developed by Linus himself.
Koha 3.0 will be the first release of Koha to be managed using Git.

There's never been a better time to get active in Koha development,
submitting patches is now a cinch. Here's a basic overview of how
the process works:

If you'd like to track development changes, feel free to view our
git-web: http://git.koha.org and take note of the available RSS feeds.

Thanks to everyone who's helped us through this transition, most 
notably MJ Ray (who I believe was the first to recommend Git), and
Chris Cormack for doing most of the heavy lifting.

Cheers,
