Taking Advantage of Android Source Code
Android documentation is a bit wanting in places. Android source code can be used to fill the gaps.
The source code for Android and all its projects is managed by the Git source code control system. Git (http://git-scm.com/) is an open source source-control system designed to handle large and small projects with speed and convenience. The Linux kernel and Ruby on Rails projects also rely on Git for version control.
The details of the Android source distribution are published at http://source.android.com. The code was made available as open source around October 2008. One of the Open Handset Alliance's goals was to make Android a free and fully customizable mobile platform.
