Using Git

To get started using the git version control system, the main git website is a good place to start, and Github also has a nice collection of guides. I found this cheat sheet to be a good one-page summary of useful git commands.

To have changes you've made merged into the main repository, prepare them as a patch (git format-patch) then submit them by email to markdayel@gmail.com

Tips

If using windows, be careful with line endings. Windows tends to change LF into CRLF. They can be changed back using the dos2unix command in cygwin. Also, make sure the permissions are not messed up (they should be 664)
