... And that's where the "teach me a bit more about it" comes in. =:^) I'm pretty much a git-consumer only at this point, with a local copy of the (non-github) kernel repo as my primary experience. I know enough to do checkouts, to use git-bisect on the local repo in the process of reporting and tracking down various bugs (routinely on the kernel, recently did my first kde/plasma bisect on a temporary repo there, one reason I'm happy so many projects are going git as I'd have never tried something like that with SVN or BZR or the like, and there's certainly enough like me that the quantity-of and turn-around-time-on /good/ bug reports is likely to increase dramatically as more projects switch), and to follow various git related comments on lists, but not a /whole/ lot more. I don't tend to go browsing github or the like and thus wasn't aware of that github feature, but it sounds interesting. Perhaps the next time I'm looking to expand my git understanding and community bug-hunting involvement, I'll take a look at github to see what's there, and to start figuring out features like this if I find anything interesting. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
