GIT by github is a software program that allows users to publish their code on an online platform where it can be revised and shared by other users. This way, users receive constructive feedback and can improve their code to help them fulfill their project.
The program installment goes smoothly and once you've completed it you get contact with its basic interface. The menu is built to offer maximum functionality, so you shouldn't have expectations regarding its visuals. There are no other themes than the default one, and the design of the buttons is quite outdated.
GIT by github provides users the means to connect to their GitHub account so they can manage the code files stored in there. More, it helps users synchronize their files each time there's a new update, so you can enjoy the latest code changes.
Furthermore, you can get your code compiled and ran with the right tool only by changing the default shell of your resources. Also, the code you've modified online can easily be saved to your computer by simply "cloning" it.
To conclude, GIT by github is a powerful file synchronizer and repository manager. It's free, it doesn't use a high amount of system resources and it's easy to use.
v1.8 [Oct 23, 2012]
--The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
exclude mechanism does. The fix for this in 1.8.1.2 had
performance degradations.
--Command line completion code was inadvertently made incompatible with
older versions of bash by using a newer array notation.
--Scripts to test bash completion was inherently flaky as it was
affected by whatever random things the user may have on $PATH.
--A fix was added to the build procedure to work around buggy
versions of ccache broke the auto-generation of dependencies, which
unfortunately is still relevant because some people use ancient
distros.
--We used to stuff "user@" and then append what we read from
/etc/mailname to come up with a default e-mail ident, but a bug
lost the "user@" part.
--"git am" did not parse datestamp correctly from Hg generated patch,
when it is run in a locale outside C (or en).
--Attempt to "branch --edit-description" an existing branch, while
being on a detached HEAD, errored out.
--"git cherry-pick" did not replay a root commit to an unborn branch.
--We forgot to close the file descriptor reading from "gpg" output,
killing "git log --show-signature" on a long history.
--"git rebase --preserve-merges" lost empty merges in recent versions
of Git.
--Rebasing the history of superproject with change in the submodule
has been broken since v1.7.12.
--A failure to push due to non-ff while on an unborn branch
dereferenced a NULL pointer when showing an error message.
--Also contains various documentation fixes.
