And so it is: http://gitorious.org/evil :)

As a starting point, I have uploaded parts of the development code
I showed you earlier. Please verify that you have commit access by
following these steps:

* Go to Dashboard -> Manage SSH keys > Add SSH keys and upload the
  right file from ~/.ssh/. (If you don't have a SSH key, you can
  generate one with ssh-keygen -C "your at email.org".)

* Set up your Git name and e-mail:

    git config --global user.name "Your Name"
    git config --global user.email "your at email.org"

* Download the repository:

    git clone git at gitorious.org:evil/evil.git

  You'll need the password for your SSH key, of course.
  (Non-committers can do git clone git://gitorious.org/evil/evil.git.)

* Make a change. You can commit it with the command:

    git commit -a

  That will bring up an editor for the commit message. It should
  consist of a brief summary in the imperative (no period), followed
  by a blank line, followed by one or more additional sentences as
  necessary. For example:

    Add license

    The license is GNU GPLv2. Or anything.

* Push your changes with:

    git push

  If I have pushed in the meantime, you will get an error, and must
  weave those changes into your own. You can do:

    git pull

  This will download my changes and merge them into yours.
  Alternatively:

    git pull --rebase

  This will just put your changes on top of mine. The latter is
  preferred if the changes are trivial and/or there is no overlap,
  since it retains a linear history.

  If there is overlap, you must merge and sort out any merge conflicts.
  See http://progit.org/book/ch3-2.html#basic_merge_conflicts for
  details. The first three chapters of that book should sort out the
  main Git/Mercurial differences.

I hope the initial hurdles are surmountable. Let's get started!
