From: Christian Ludwig on 16 Apr 2010 18:30 Dear kernel hackers & Git lovers, some of you might have noticed already that today we celebrate 5 years of Linux kernel development in Git. After looking for an alternative to Bitkeeper, Linus came up with his own solution and wrote that new tool he called Git. Exactly 5 years ago, Linus announced Linux-2.6.12-rc2 by making the the very first commit into the official Linux kernel Git tree. So we made a little movie to visualize the source code development of Linux over these past 5 years of Git history. The video was made with Gource, a source code visualization tool. Yes, there are some bugs in the video, but we found the overall idea way too cool to not share the result with you. You can find the video online in different formats. You can find a preview teaser on Youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntTpM8hfl_E The torrents are linked on the page. We hope you enjoy the video and celebrate 5 years of Linux kernel development in Git with us. - Christian PS: When answering, please cc me since I am not on the list. -- The difference between theory and practice in practice is bigger than the difference between theory and practice in theory. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

That is one nice video. rtorrent is now fetching the 1080p version and will be seeding for at least a week. > [...] Not much to say about git that haven't already been said, except perhaps that it is now the main vcs at work and at home for me.
