#CREATION
This repository was created by the course at codeschool.com in Elementary Git when it asked permission to use my GitHub account for the course.
#HISTORY
The course took me through a set of steps that added and deleted these simple files, leaving the repository in a final condition where none of the files were left and it was empty, I suppose, ready for deletion.
#CLEAN-UP
I almost got rid of the waste of space, but it seemed to me that it would be useful to have one repo that was non-critical, something with which I could play in order to practice and plan my workflow and forking for a current project -- without jeopardizing that project.
#THE PRESENT
I thought it would be good practice to take it back to the state where the simple files were still there. After all, I hadn't really paid any attention to what was in them -- I just looked at the bigger picture of putting modules in and getting them out.
#THE MANIPULATION
I used git reset --hard 3852b4d in order to go back to the point in time when all of the files were present, and I'm writing this README in vim so that I can try out some git tools in vim.
I guess I'll be pushing this in one way or another and now I want to see how much of this can be done right in the editor. That would be an improvement over the headaches all my other old revision tracking software gave me: When I saw that Bram Moolenaar was using mercurial and found it so simple, I was going to choose it. It looks as though the diffs are about that to which I've become accustomed. But so many more people with whom I want to do business have adopted git, that, once again, that has vectored my decision.
