   How many people around here are using #git? What tools do you use? What over #VCS? I suppose I should start a VCS group.

      @musicman I normally only use #git when I have no other choice. Its commands seem obtuse when compared with mercurial ( #hg ) and #fossil ( which is still my favorite dvcs [ and favorite vcs in general, as I never used #cvs or #svn ] ). I have to look up everything I want to do with it.

      @musicman I use it whenever I need version control. I use the command line client, with vim as the diff/merge utility. The book is free: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2. I read it when I was first starting, and recommend it.
