+<a href="http://syncwith.us/sd/">SD</a> is a peer to peer bug tracking system build on top of <a href="http://syncwith.us/">Prophet</a>. Prophet is <strong> A grounded, semirelational, peer to peer replicated, disconnected, versioned, property database with self-healing conflict resolution</strong>. SD can be used alone, on an existing bug tracking system (like RT or redmine or github) and it plays nice with git.  
+
+Why should you use SD ? Well, at <a href="http://linkfluence.net/">$work</a> we are using <a href="http://www.redmine.org/">redmine</a> as our ticket tracker.  I spend a good part of my time in a terminal, and checking the ticket system, adding a ticket, etc, using the browser, is annoying. I prefer something which I can use in my terminal and edit with my <a href="http://www.vim.org/">$EDITOR</a>. So if you recognize yourself in this description, you might want to take a look at SD.
+
+> In the contrib directory of the SD distribution, you will find a SD ticket syntax file for vim.
+
+## how to do some basic stuff with sd
+
+We will start by initializing a database. By default
+
+```bash
+% sd init
+```
+
+will create a *.sd* directory in your $HOME. If you want to create in a specific path, you will need to set the SD_REPO in your env.
+
+```bash
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd sd init
+```
+
+The init command creates an sqlite database and a config file. The config file is in the same format as the one used by git.
+
+Now we can create a ticket:
+
+```bash
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd ticket create
+```
+
+This will open your $EDITOR, the part you need to edit are specified. After editing this file, you will get something like this:
+
+> Created ticket 11 (437b823c-8f69-46ff-864f-a5f74964a73f)
+> Created comment 12 (f7f9ee13-76df-49fe-b8b2-9b94f8c37989)
+
+You can view the created ticket:
+
+```bash
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd ticket show 11
+```
+
+and the content of your ticket will be displayed.
+
+You can list and filter your tickets:
+
+```bash
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd ticket list
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd search --regex foo
+```
+
+You can edit the SD configuration using the config tool or editing directly the file. SD will look for three files : /etc/sdrc, $HOME/.sdrc or the config file in your replica (in our exemple, ~/code/myproject/sd/config).
+
+For changing my email address, I can do it this way:
+
+```bash
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd config user.email-address franck@lumberjaph.net
+```
+
+or directly
+
+```bash
+% SD_REPO=~/code/myproject/sd config edit
+```
+
+and update the user section.
+
+## sd with git
+
+SD provides a script for git: *git-sd*.
+
+Let's start by creating a git repository:
+
+```bash
+% mkdir ~/code/git/myuberproject
+% cd ~/code/git/myuberproject
+git init
+```
+
+SD comes with a git hook named "git-post-commit-close-ticket" (in the contrib directory). We will copy this script to <strong>.git/hooks/post-commit</strong>.
+
+now we can initialize our sd database
+
+```bash
+% git-sd init
+```
+
+git-sd will try to find which email you have choosen for this project using git config, and use the same address for it's configuration.
+
+Let's write some code for our new project
+
+```perl
+#!/usr/bin/env perl
+use strict;
+use warnings;
+print "hello, world\n";
+```
+
+then
+
+```bash
+% git add hello.pl
+% git commit -m "first commit" hello.pl
+```
+
+now we can create a new entry
+
+```bash
+% git-sd ticket create # create a ticket to replace print with say
+```
+
+We note the UUID for the ticket: in my exemple, the following output is produced:
+
+> Created ticket 11 (92878841-d764-4ac9-8aae-cd49e84c1ffe)
+> Created comment 12 (ddb1e56e-87cb-4054-a035-253be4bc5855)
+
+so my UUID is <strong>92878841-d764-4ac9-8aae-cd49e84c1ffe</strong>.
+
+Now, I fix my bug
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env perl
+use strict;
+use 5.010;
+use warnings;
+say "hello, world";
+```
+
+and commit it
+
+```bash
+% git commit -m "Closes 92878841-d764-4ac9-8aae-cd49e84c1ffe" hello.pl
+```
+
+If I do a
+
+```bash
+% git ticket show 92878841-d764-4ac9-8aae-cd49e84c1ffe
+```
+
+The ticket will be marked as closed.
+
+## sd with github
+
+Let's say you want to track issues from a project (I will use <a href="http://plackperl.org/">Plack</a> for this exemple) that is hosted on github.
+
+```bash
+% git clone git://github.com/miyagawa/Plack.git
+% git-sd clone --from "github:http://github.com/miyagawa/Plack"
+# it's the same as
+% git-sd clone --from "github:miyagawa/Plack"
+# or if you don't want to be prompted for username and password each time
+% git-sd clone --from github:http://githubusername:apitoken@github.com/miyagawa/Plack.git
+```
+
+It will ask for you github username and your API token, and clone the database.
+
+Later, you can publish your sd database like this:
+
+```bash
+% git-sd push --to "github:http://github.com/$user/$project"
+```
+
+Now you can code offline with git, and open/close tickets using SD :)
