Git: Getting Started

Lots of good discussion on this over at SPServices.

On the .js build process ptavares:

• Generate developer jsDocs (javadoc type of stuff)
• Generate user documentation (I used to do it with NaturalDocs, I now use Markdown)...
• Create minified version of library file(s)
• Create a distribution package (zip file with source, documentation and minified versions) 

Class-based vs. Prototype-based

Apparently being class-based improves performance. Re: ActionScript: Improved performance from a class-based inheritance system separate from the prototype-based inheritance system. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActionScript What does that say about Javascript as a competitor to RIA apps?
