Hello everyone,
	I was playing around with gitweb project for a couple of days. I
would like to get some more information on the project.
	
	1. Where can I find general instructions on "Contributing to git? "
more specifically, gitweb?
	2. Where can I find coding standards for git? I am looking for the
git version of this document.
		[JQuery core style
guidelines](http://docs.jquery.com/JQuery_Core_Style_Guidelines)
	3. Is JavaScript code unit tested? I cant find much docs regarding
this anywhere.
		I found some general instructions
[here](https://git.wiki.kernel.org/articles/h/o/w/HowToWriteTests_9902.html)
but not for JavaScript.
		I did analyze a few scripts in t/ folder.
		I have shortlisted the following for JavaScript unit testing in
priority order.
		[JSDev by Douglas
Crockford](https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSDev) for its
simplicity and elegance.
		[Jasmine](http://pivotal.github.com/jasmine/) for its power.
		[Sinon.js](http://sinonjs.org/)	- overall goodness.
		
	I would love to hear from you all suggestions on this. A bit of help
for integrating new tests with the existing ones will be of great
help.
Regards,
