C and LabView version control with Git

I noticed a number of people asking about revision control, specifically, SVN. Quick to defend my most favorite piece of software ever, Git, I whipped up a document describing how teams can implement it in their C, C++, or LabVIEW programs:

Revision Control with Git for FRC Teams

Anyone who wishes to help edit it, feel free to request permission (if there isn't a link PM me your email to add, make sure you have a Google Docs account). Also, anyone who wants to help figure out how to fit it into FIRSTwiki somehow is also welcome (see my footer).

I want to focus on the philosophy of revision control, how to best use it during the fast paced action of the build season, how to make it work with LabVIEW, and a description of the best workflow (who pulls and pushes from/to whom - I still don't have this one figured out exactly).

Suggestions, from people new to Git especially, would be much appreciated!
