The folks at Index Data have switched from CVS to git for many of their open source products, including YAZ, Zebra, and PazPar2. Visit their gitweb or clone from their repository (git://git.indexdata.com/project) for some distributed version control goodness. They use submodules, so git version 1.5.3 or higher is required.
Last Wednesday I gave a lightning talk at Code4LibCon on some musings about Git qua distributed version control system and ideas for distributed cataloging. Check out my slides.
Slides from the other lightning talks are being posted here. Be sure to check out Andy Mullen’s presentation when his slides and the video are posted — making player piano MIDI files from OCRs of scanned scores is special enough, but his sense of dramatic timing during his presentation was marvelous.
