Description-en: fast, scalable, distributed revision control system (GUI)
Git is popular version control system designed to handle very large
projects with speed and efficiency; it is used for many high profile
open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel.
.
Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools.
Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full
revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a
central server.
.
This package provides the git graphical user interface.
.
If aspell is installed, it can check the spelling of commit messages
as the user types.
.
If meld is installed, it can be used for displaying diffs and for
interactive merge conflict resolution.
