fast, scalable, distributed revision control system (svn interoperability) Git is popular version control system designed to handle very large projects with speed and efficiency; it is used for many high profile open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel. Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools. Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server. This package provides tools for interoperating with Subversion repositories, and importing SVN development history.
