git log, git show, git stash and git branch and cherry-pick...!!

Working with a decentralized and fast(!) version control system locally is 
sooooo much more fun + effective, the difference is hard to imagine if you 
haven't experienced it yourself.

I've updated org/TODO now with the points raised by Salvatore and Thijs.

Just one thing made me suspicious:

the "two main"?? Are there others? Currently this part of TODO reads:

Security Tracker svn to git conversion
 - TBD: add here the todo items to be considered for the move
   * joeyh's commit script needs to be adopted to git
    *  When fixing the joeyh one, I think it makes sense to move it to a role
       account on alioth (as previously discussed), rather than this personal
       account, at the same time.
   * the tracker itself needs to be adopted
   * There's also a very useful pre-commit hook that checks syntax of commits 
to data/*. This is something that also would need a place somewhere.
   * the sectracker user is subscribed to the commits mailinglists, and the 
commit messages trigger updates of the tracker.
   * http://security-team.debian.org is updated from svn, needs to be 
switched, should be simple
   * debsecan?


cheers,
