The OpenMRS Developer Community is anticipating migrating to Gitdistributed versioning of our code. This page serves as a point of communication about the process.
Background
Distributed code versioning has become a more popular form of sharing code in place of the centralized model.

- Tutorials for developers to ease the transition
