GitMon Quick Start Screencast

A screencast showing how to install GitMon in 5 minutes on a Mac.

GitMon 0.3 - Easy Install!

Since the last post GitMon has got many improvements, including the easy_install support (GitMon is hosted at Python Package Index), so to install it, simply do:

sudo easy_install gitmon

Then run gitmon from terminal and it will create a default configuration file for you (~/.gitmon.conf). Edit it and you're good to go!

Mac OS X users who have Growl installed can get it all working in 3 minutes. It will involve some additional configuration twiddling for Linux and Windows guys, but that will be improved in future releases.
