"This tutorial, then, will take a conceptual approach to Git. My goal will be, first and foremost, to explain the Git universe and its objectives, and secondarily to illustrate how to use Git commands to manipulate that universe."
"Quick introduction to git internals for people who are not scared by words like Directed Acyclic Graph."
"Perhaps the best technical introduction to git out there."
"In my pursuit to understand Git, it’s been helpful for me to understand it from the bottom up — rather than look at it only in terms of its high-level commands. And since Git is so beautifully simple when viewed this way, I thought others might be interested to read what I’ve found, and perhaps avoid the pain I went through finding it."

Including the name of the publisher and protecting against malware injections and other corruption, signed code provides customers the same security as store bought, shrink-wrapped software."
"In today’s post, I’ll be discussing the use of Authenticode to sign software programs; this post will be of interest primarily to software developers. Large software companies (like Microsoft) often have an entire team dedicated to the code-signing and release process, but even (especially) small software publishers should sign their code. In this post, I’ll explain why, and tell you everything you need to do to achieve the benefits of shipping signed code."
