Thanks. I’ve pushed a new gnucash repository, as well as a gnucash-docs repository.

I used your authors file, with a couple of tweaks, to re-import gnucash-docs, so take a look at that repo to see some pictures :-)

Also, I’m currently rewriting the Git page in the GnuCash wiki to detail the whole process, so it’s something of a work in progress. In general I would recommend people wait until I finish writing up the usage caveats and restrictions until starting to use the Git repos on GitHub; but really, the most important thing is to do all your work in a throwaway Git branch (not master) if you want to contribute. The reason is that the git svn dcommit command creates a new Git HEAD when it commits, and that new head will become the SVN trunk, not the contributor’s master HEAD. I hope that makes sense! In any case, the important thing is to make contributions on throwaway branches.

Regards,

Yawar
