Hello,

Alexander Coles and I are very pleased to announce the first release of
nbgit, a git module for NetBeans. It uses the JGit library to interact
with Git repositories, which means that it should be as cross-platform
as it can get. Furthermore, both NetBeans 6.1 and 6.5beta should be
supported, the last one only slightly tested though.

The project is still in an early development phase and many features are
currently missing. However, nbgit 0.1 supports the most basic features
of a NetBeans versioning module. This includes showing annotations for
files and directories, viewing the status of tracked files, browsing
differences (both in diff view and in the editor), committing, and more
(see full list below).

Interested and *brave* people are encouraged to take it for a spin and
report first impressions, problems, or hurrahs in the nbgit forum or the
issue tracker on the Google Code project page.
