程序员之友 Git 的名字怎么来的？
Linus Torvalds自己在Readme里面这么写道：
"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 mispronunciation 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 shit": when it breaks.
也就是：
1：随便挑的好读的三个字母组合，没被常用UNIX命令用到，大概不是get打错。
2：英文俚语：蠢人
3：全局信息跟踪器
4：傻X东西
但是Linus后来又这么说过：“I'm an egotistical bastard, and I name all my projects after myself. First 'Linux', now 'git'.”
Linux一眼看出来就的确是从他名字来的，那么这个git怎么来的，就很值得推敲了。
