More Ruby/Git Greatness

I’m really excited to see how well the Ruby (on Rails) community have received Git. A big reason is probably the awesome service GitHub but there are several other goodies coming out from the Rubyists.

Yesterday I blogged about the GitCasts and today I learned about Gitjour. It’s a tool to announce and make available repositories over Bonjour so that you can list and clone repositories available on the local network.

To serve a repository simply call:

$ gitjour serve
Registered gringo.  Starting service.

You can then list and clone it with:

$ gitjour list
Gathering for up to 5 seconds...
=== gringo on Tabasco.local. ===
  gitjour clone gringo
