7 years ago ping @eugulixes, I hope to release gits on next Monday, for achieving this goal I want to slightly improve our docs.
During a building gits for varios platforms I've reallised that living with a python and nodejs at the same time is a big pain in the ass.
Let's begin with Linux Mint:
- It doesn't have a setuptools on a startup.
- nodejs has a different location, that's why we need to create a symlink to make our
npm run startworks.
Fedora 24:
- A zero problem with an installation (of course it's a good point).
- Broken htop, vim, nano, man (I wan't provide a screenshot demonstrating it, but all console oriented tools work incorrectly)
- Also I have a short dance with a tambourine with installing pip, virtualenv properly
MacOS:
- SSH deamon is always turn off on a start up and I always forget to turn it on and spend some time to figure it out WTF with our login util, that's why I think we need to mention that SSH deamon should be start before running gits.
I specify only a little problems above, because I didn't notice all problems and forgot some of them.
Overall wishes:
- We need to rework CI by adding different platforms (#95).
- We need to provide a more simple interface for running gits (I think we should have something like
gits startand that's it, user doesn't care about running a client at first, that running a server), we can achieve this by providing a tool, that will operate our low-level python lib and npm package. - We need to provide a make file with set of simple targets: build, test. By build target I mean that user will have a ready tool to run gits on any platform (execpt windows). By test target I mean a simple way of running all gits test (now we don't have it).
- Can we move our doc back to github from readthedoc, it's a personal experience, but it's more convinient to have all stuff about gits in a one place.

A small typo fix in a section describing how to install gits.
