Linux founder and leader Linus Torvalds has launched a new tool, called Git, to manage his software project, after a dispute led him to drop the previous system.

Torvalds stopped using a management system called BitKeeper earlier this month, reverting to an older, slower technique of simply e-mailing updates among the hundreds of programmers who contribute to the project. But moving to Git means the Linux project once again will have an automated mechanism to control the flow of updates and track changes.
