Or, at least, where do I find all this info? I take it it's not this: Package: git Priority: optional Section: utils Installed-Size: 919 Maintainer: Ian Beckwith Architecture: i386 Version: 4.3.20-7 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4), libncurses5 (>= 5.4-1), libreadline4 (>= 4.3-1) Filename: pool/main/g/git/git_4.3.20-7_i386.deb Size: 261822 MD5sum: a708688e17259ed1e99d2828e1acb3f6 Description: GNU Interactive Tools, a file browser/viewer and process viewer/killer git (GNU Interactive Tools) is a set of interactive text-mode tools, closely integrated with the shell. It contains an extensible file system browser, an ascii/hex file viewer, a process viewer/killer and some other related utilities and shell scripts. It can be used to increase the speed and efficiency of most of the daily tasks such as copying and moving files and directories, invoking editors, compressing and uncompressing files, creating and expanding archives, compiling programs, sending mail, etc. It looks nice, has colors (if the standard ANSI color sequences are supported) and is user-friendly. . One of the main advantages of Git is its flexibility. It is not limited to a given set of commands. The configuration file can be easily enhanced, allowing the user to add new commands or file operations, depending on its needs or preferences. -- greg
