I can't embed images in this journal, so here instead. It's a little examination of how one point release has been represented, with gitk screenshot.
What an amazing diagram

This is what I'm looking for in a source control system. Is this what Git can do for you? Wow.
How hard was it to produce? You said it shows how patches are applied against Perl old versions. But how did you tell Git? I don't know Git, as yo ucan probably can tell...
I really should try it out, even though it doesn't work (well) on Windows (Cygwin doesn't count), which is what my main computer works on.
I still have an older PC attached to my local network that can run Linux. Perhaps I should turn it on more often, and use it as my source control server.

Git is distributed... so every node needs to be able to run it, not just the server.
There is a "native" git port, too - I encourage you to try the latest MinGW release, after reading this message from Martín, and reporting back your experience to the git@vger.kernel.org mailing list.
