From 39e61c9ad9622d805a64413201b308e6a09943d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 13:31:00 -0700 Subject: kernel-dev: Inserted section on Git as a relavent note Appendix A of the kernel-dev had a subsection dedicated to just saying Git was the SCM used by the YP team for development. Having this information in a dedicated section was overkill. The information is better as an "aside". I put the stuff in a note.
