Warner, thanks for the pointers to your docs in Git. The 2nd one does
not work, but I can glance through the docs below
https://github.com/bsdimp/freebsd-git-docs

Is there also a document about how the export and setup of git was done
for FreeBSD? I'm asking with the background that the organization I'm
working for also is thinking in moving from svn to git. At the moment
we're studying the pros and conts for such a step.
