Fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is the most widely-used revision control system in Open Source. It is a distributed system with an emphasis on speed, data integrity, and support for distributed, non-linear workflows.

Many large and successful projects use Git, including the Linux Kernel, Perl, Eclipse, Gnome, KDE, Qt, Ruby on Rails, Android, PostgreSQL, Debian, and X.org.

This organization covers projects for Git itself. Students may also propose projects related to libgit2. Other git-based software or services are not covered by this organization.
