I think you need to clarify your intended audience first before soliciting "list of things that would help CVS user to convert to GIT". Specifically, which variant of GIT you are talking about. I think you are talking about using the bare Plumbing. I suspect that some of the things you said "too hard" may be coming from the fact that you did not use Cogito in the "showing off" you did. I imagine Cogito users do not experience the trouble you felt with git-init-db, since I presume they would rather use cg-init which IIUIC sets up the .git/refs structure for its taste. Having said that, I am in the same camp as you are in, in that the (secondary) goal of my involvement in this project so far has been to make the bare Plumbing confortable enough to use, to make the choice of Porcelain more or less irrelevant. As such, I am all for such a tutorial to convert CVS people to Plumbing GIT. Not that I'd volunteer writing big part of such a document. I suck at documentation, not just math ;-). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Tue May 31 07:22:48 2005
