Hey all,

Just a heads up - I've been working on a book on Git being published
by Apress called "Pro Git", which is being licensed under a CC 3.0
license and as I've just finished some of the final reviews, I've put
the entire content of the book online at:

http://progit.org

Many thanks for that. It's an interesting reading. Is it updated often?
There're some typos.

Also, a comment. When you show how to setup a git server with ssh, you
have:
$ su git
$ cd
$ mkdir .ssh

After su make sure umask doesn't allow group-writable, or the ssh daemon
will complay about wrong permissions in .ssh and .ssh/authorized_keys.

$ su git
$ umask 077
$ ..

And reset to more generous defaults after finishing with ssh setup.
(Like by saving the previous value or just using 022.)

Luciano Rocha
