Here's a list of some things that we can use to further expand the article:
These last three are ememplars of the ignorance that pervades among people with regard to this hypersensitivty to and policing of language.
"Master" here does not reference slavery. It has the same semantics as having a master (that is primary) recording, the one from which all others are copies. This has nothing to do with racism except to a bunch of virtue signaling ignoramuses so intent of "cleansing" our language of content they find, again out of deep ignorance, objectionable, and without any knowledge of the actual meaning or etymology of the words. I personally change "main" back to "master" in my new repositories exactly because the former does _not_ have the same semantics as the latter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.74.108.114 ( talk) 18:15, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

While git is "usually used for coordinating work among programmers collaboratively developing source code during software development" it is gaining momentum in other industries. Perhaps this proposition could be eliminated in the header and included elsewhere because in essence it reads that git is for programmers. I don't know if I am the only one who would favour more inclusive language in the header so more people might be inclined to use git or not feel excluded by that statement. If we describe other software pages such as the [ Word] page we do not see a statement of demographics regarding to the use of the software.

There should be a section about it. It's popular, and even mentioned on the official website of Git. Galzigler ( talk) 16:40, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
@ Emunah00 The new section on graphical interfaces is a bit of a dumpster fire. It was added along with a giant notice that it needs work. Why add something like that? Add it when you have complete work.
Also, interfaces is not a great term. I think graphical client is what the author is getting at. Interestingly, above is a talk topic on 'GUI clients'. Maybe that's what Emunah00 is addressing.
Thing is, why limit to graphical/gui clients? The CLI client is important too. How about naming the section Client.
FWIW and IMO, the section Git server should be Server. Stevebroshar ( talk) 16:12, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
