The Git Parable
A fictional tale of a programmer's quest to make a version control system, except what it describes in step by step detail is how Git works. Nicely done and informative.
Git for the real world
"Now that we've been using git at Twitter for a couple of months, we've overcome several crippling problems and misunderstandings about how to use it properly. There are dozens of "intros" and "tutorials" to git online, but at some point you need to know more than just the basics of DVCS and the map to svn commands -- you need to know practical considerations of real-world usage.

Not very long ago I was fortunate to attend a talk given by Randall Schwartz on git, the distributed source control system developed by Linus Torvalds and the rest of the Linux kernel developers. After that talk and after watching the Google Video talk given by Linus ...
