Description-en: fast, scalable, distributed revision control system (git-daemon service)
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.
.
git-daemon, as provided by the git package, is a simple server for git
repositories, ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e. pulling from git
repositories through the network. This package provides a sysvinit service
for running git-daemon permanently.
