+It's Magit!  A Emacs mode for Git.
+
+I started to write Magit to learn about Git and to figure out how I
+would be using Git in a 'natural' way.  Magit will grow and hopefully
+become more coherent as I learn more about Git and good ways to use
+it.  Feedback is welcome!
+
+* Installing
+
+Magit can be installed with the popular recipe of
+
+   $ ./autogen.sh     # If you got the sources directly from Git
+   $ ./configure
+   $ make install
+
+This will put magit.el into /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp, where
+Emacs should be able to find it.  Then add
+
+      (require 'magit)
+
+to your .emacs file.
+
+* Getting started
+
+To get started with Magit, open any file in a Git repository in Emacs
+and run 'M-x magit-status'.  Read the online help of magit-mode ('C-h
+m' in the Magit buffer), make some changes to your files, and try to
+commit them.
+
+* Learning more
+
+The Magit User Manual describes things with more words than the online
+help.  You can read it in Emacs with 'C-u C-h i magit.info' for
+example, or on the web at
+
+    http://zagadka.vm.bytemark.co.uk/magit/magit.html
