Git Community Book

Hey all,

I just wanted to let those of you who are interested know that I've
been making a lot of progress on the Git Community Book
(http://book.git-scm.com)  I was wondering if anyone was interested in
helping me with a few parts.  For one, there are some sections that I
personally have very little experience with, and was looking for some
notes/blog posts/personal experiences on, namely Advanced History
Modification (filter-branch, advanced rebasing, etc), Corruption
Recovery, Branch Tracking, Subversion Integration, Git with
Perl/Python/PHP, and Using Git with Editors (especially
NetBeans/Eclipse).

Also, the last section of the book is on some of the plumbing - mostly
stuff I've found difficult to pick up with the existing documentation
while re-implementing stuff in Ruby.  I would really appreciate it if
someone could proofread some of these chapters for errors:

http://book.git-scm.com/7_the_packfile.html
http://book.git-scm.com/7_raw_git.html
http://book.git-scm.com/7_transfer_protocols.html

Some of the next things I'm interested in producing is a cookbook
style guide and some searching tools for all the online documentation,
just to keep everyone up to date on where I'm going with the project.
Also, there is now a simple PDF downloadable version of the book
available and being kept up to date with the html version.

Thanks,
Scott
