    This is from the git-0.03/README file:
    GIT - the stupid content tracker

    "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

    - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
    actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
    mispronounciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
    - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
    dictionary of slang.
    - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
    works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
    - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

    This is a stupid (but extremely fast) directory content manager. It
    doesn't do a whole lot, but what it _does_ do is track directory
    contents efficiently.
