-Linus Torvalds new toolset for a "userland filesystem upon which
-other SCM implementations are being built or adapted."
+Git is a popular version control system designed to handle very large projects
+with speed and efficiency; it is used mainly for various open source projects,
+most notably the Linux kernel.
 
-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.
+Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools, similar
+to e.g. GNU Arch or Monotone (or BitKeeper in the proprietary world). Every
+Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full revision tracking
+capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server.
 
-There are two object abstractions: the "object database", and the
-"current directory cache" aka "index".
+Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License v2. It
+was originally written by Linus Torvalds and is currently maintained by
+Junio C Hamano.
