Gitalist::Faq - Frequently asked questions about Gitalist

=head1 QUESTIONS

=head2 Is there a Gitalist demo site anywhere

See L<http://goatse.co.uk/~bobtfish/Gitalist/script/gitalist.fcgi/>

=head2 Is there anything that explains what the color bars under the SHA-1 hashes mean?

They don't mean anything as such, they're just first 6 chars of the
SHA-1 as a hex colour e.g the commit
C<< f85cb28d32054b92e2a7094a83ebe528485dbf36 >> becomes C<< #f85cb2 >>
hence that pink colour you see.  It was an idea borrowed from Chroma-Hash
(L<http://mattt.github.com/Chroma-Hash/>).
Also at the top right hand corner of pages is the first 36 chars of
the SHA-1 of the current commit where the color underneath each 6 char
chunk is the corresponding hex colour. I've found the colours to be a
handy visual cue when dealing with SHA-1s.
