Thanks, Mike -- awesome stuff.
I wondered about GitLab. It looked great but I couldn't tell if it was legit. Sounds like a keeper.
Thanks again,
Steve

Hey all,
For those of you who might want to play with Git, GitBook ( https://www.gitbook.com/) is a repository for random pieces of documentation. Up to five writers can collaborate on a single public-domain or open source project for free, Click the Explore tab to read current projects. Could be a place to test multi-writer conflict issues
I have not worked on a project here, though I've thought about it. The devs at work use Git for source control, and I do keep HTML, Word and PDF docs in my own repository, away from the code.
Manning publishing keeps a GitLab installation for its authors to use if they're so inclined. GitLab and GitHub are competing public Git repositories.
