Git:Blit is an open-source, integrated pure Java stack for managing, viewing, and serving [Git][git] repositories.
-Its designed primarily as a tool for small workgroups who want to host [Git][git] repositories on a Windows machine.
-
-Of course, since its pure Java it should run with any JVM on any platform, but there are already [many compelling Git solutions](https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/InterfacesFrontendsAndTools) for non-Windows environments.
+Its designed primarily as a tool for small workgroups who want to host [Git][git] repositories on a Windows machine. Having said that, it works equally well on any standard Linux distribution.

### Design Principles
1. [KISS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle)
2. Offer useful features for serving Git repositories. If feature is complex, refer to #1.
-3. All dependencies must be retrievable from a publicly accessible Maven repository.<br/>This is to ensure authenticity of dependencies and to keep the Git:Blit distribution svelte.
