		If you want to make your Git repository available
		to others you may want to include a link to it from your
		website. One way to make this more accessible is to include
		a <firstterm>checkout link</firstterm> for other TortoiseGit users.
	</para>
	<para>
		When you install TortoiseGit, it registers a new
		<literal>tsvn:</literal> protocol. When a TortoiseGit user clicks on
		such a link, the checkout dialog will open automatically with
		the repository URL already filled in.
	</para>
	<para>
		To include such a link in your own html page, you need to add
		code which looks something like this:
<programlisting>
&lt;a href="tsvn:http://project.domain.org/svn/trunk"&gt;
&lt;/a&gt;
</programlisting>
	</para>
	<para>
		Of course it would look even better if you included a suitable picture.
		You can use the
		<ulink url="http://TortoiseGit.tigris.org/images/TortoiseCheckout.png">
			<citetitle>TortoiseGit logo</citetitle>
		</ulink>
		or you can provide your own image.
<programlisting>
&lt;a href="tsvn:http://project.domain.org/svn/trunk"&gt;
&lt;img src=TortoiseCheckout.png&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
</programlisting>
	</para>
	<para>
		You can also make the link point to a specific revision, for example
<programlisting>
&lt;a href="tsvn:http://project.domain.org/svn/trunk?100"&gt;
&lt;/a&gt;
</programlisting>
	</para>
