Moving Amplify To Git Hub…

After getting cygwin updated, and getting much of my dev stuff on a USB drive for many good reasons and exploring using git on windows.  I’ve decided git is stable enough to use, a good reason for me to use the command line more often and git fits more of my development needs. 

The biggest factor is that it is its own repo on my local, so when I’m working disconnected, i can still make commits to my local drive.  The second biggest reason is the amazing merging, branching and speed at which it works. 

Also with the code move, I’m starting over per-say, by slowly adding code only after tests are written for them, this process will put me back some, but when down, I should have a decent size test suite for amplify which is sorely needed. 

Of course another while doing all of this I also moved a huge portion of my dev environment to my USB drive to recently having to develop on a desktop not provided for.  I was even able to get e-texteditor on a USB drive without using something like thinstall/thinapp. 

As for moving to GitHub, well there are not that many hosted repositories for git at this point and you really can’t beat free.
