PushOK's GIT SCC plug-in.

This reference manual is dedicated to the description of the functionalities of the plug-in GIT SCC Proxy (further GITSCC) - an intermediator between the development environment (IDE) and the source code control system GIT. Being just an add-in to the GIT client, the plug-in realizes none of GIT functions directly. At the same time the plug-in does not change the interface of development environment, providing only a specific set of functions used by each IDE in a way it considers proper. Thus, the plug-in has its own rather restricted user interface. It is senseless to describe it without describing methods and details of work with GIT in general, as well as in the IDE context.

That is why this reference manual contains chapters about methods and techniques of working with GITSCC, its installation and settings, methods of working in team and performing main operations. The plug-in can work with many IDEs, but we shall limit ourselves to MS VB, VS and VS.NET. Below you will find the table of contents of this manual. Good luck!
