Hello,
Can you tell me if this product is free for educational use? We would like
to include it in our software master and have it installed on all
computers. We are just double checking as some license agreements can be
confusing.


Thanks
Annie

Git is free, period ;-). Both free of charge, and "free as in free
speach" (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html).

A quick overview:

In case of doubt however the actual license should be
