Hey all,

A followup on the post I did a few days ago about Git documentation.
I forked Petr's git.or.cz site and put up a version that I think is a
bit more accessible and newbie-friendly at git-scm.com.  I had meant
to discuss this with Petr before posting it to you all, but I
published a blog post that got a bit more attention than I expected,
and I didn't want you all to think I didn't care about your opinion,
as some have already accused me of.

Anyhow, I'm discussing with Petr about where we want to go from here -
what changes he'd like to make, etc, but I obviously value your
opinion as well, so please let me know what you think.  The content
has barely changed, it's really just a usability overhaul.  I want to
make sure that whatever someone is looking for (especially someone
new), they can find in a few clicks and a few seconds.
Thanks for the update. Looks good.

Minor niggle: On the download page, in the Binaries table, Cygwin is listed 
before msysGit. I'm under the impression that msysGit is what we really 
want to be pushing on Windows (it's faster, smaller, and less strange to 
Windows-people (i.e. less Unix-y)), so you might want to switch the order 
around.


Have fun!

...Johan
