Git is a Harrier Jump Jet. And not in a good way

Git is a harrier jump jet when you need it, and a motorcycle the rest of the time.

It is perfect for little "6 file projects". Try getting started so quickly like this in CVS or subversion:

  git init
  git add . 
  git commit -a -m "My own repo"

Bam, done. Now you can just do git commit -a whenever you need to add something new. Sure, the index might feel strange to some people, just skip it with -a.

And for reduced typing, you can even alias it in your .gitconfig:

    [alias]
      cam = commit -a -m

Then you can just type 'git cam "look what I changed!"'
