The git thing is what I admire about Linus... He saw that existing version control tools don't do what he wanted, so he just sat down and wrote the best (ok, one of the best :) version control tool on the market, from scratch. Just like that. OK, I know I'm simplifying, but still. If he does something like that again, I'll start to think maybe he was sent to us from the future to help us.
