Dear All,
I have been just aware of GIT. As an active Linux device driver developer, I would like to know more about it. I have read through the GIT documentation the git native site.http://git.or.cz/
I find lot a similarities between GIT And Cvs. Can any elaborate on this? Can I use GIT instead of Cvs?
Regards, Mukund Jampala

The similiarities are just because they're both SCM's. It pretty much ends there.

It was just done in the list. If you browse the archives you'll find a lengthy discussion. You might also want to read the Documentation/cvs-migration.txt found in the git distribution.

Certainly. Prepare to spend a week or so letting the command-structure and syntax sink in though. It's a steep learning curve at first, although the git tutorial (Documentation/tutorial.txt) nicely cuts it in half.
The documentation is also available for online browsing at http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git-core/docs/
