Google in combination with the list archives is probably your best
friend here. Googling "site:speech.braille.uwo.ca git" should get you

most, if not all of your other questions.

One thing that isn't immediately obvious is that yes, git replaces
cvs, and I gather from Kirk's previous posts, and from the fact that
there haven't been updates to the cvs tree for a good while now, that
cvs is being abandond in favor of git.

Finally, if you want to know what git is, it looks like

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_%28software%29

does a good job of answering that, though I haven't browsed the entire
article, so maybe the first paragraph or so makes it look better than
it is. Hth.
