Which version of the book is affected?

The version that's present on master.

Discussion:

The outdated Visual Studio section was also noted in #1205.

EDIT: The dead link that I originally reported is fixed with the merge of #1450.
I also updated this issue report to take that into account, as not to confuse readers after the merge. 😄

@HonkingGoose Hi, I was just about to create an issue for this and happily found yours first. I work on the Visual Studio team and would love to help update this section. Our team is building a new Git experience in Visual Studio 2019, and we've recently added documentation for it - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/ide/git-with-visual-studio?view=vs-2019. We can start by updating the link but I agree the page needs a rewrite, including new screenshots. How can I help? 😃

Hi @prnadago! 👋

Thank you very much for your help to update this section! 🎉 🚀

I suggest you start with a PR to update the link first as that is easiest to do, and will get your feet wet with AsciiDoctor.

I don't know if you've ever worked with AsciiDoctor, but you can find the docs for AsciiDoctor here: https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/syntax-quick-reference/

Our readme has some help on setting up how to use Ruby to build the book: https://github.com/progit/progit2/blob/master/README.asc

Keep in mind that we follow the "one sentence per line" rule here.
That means that we create a newline when we encounter a .
That will be important for when you're working on the rewrite.

We keep our images here: https://github.com/progit/progit2/tree/master/images
And you can read here how to link to the new images: https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/syntax-quick-reference/#images
You should delete the old images as well, as we won't be using those again... 😄

If you need more help feel free to ping me again. 😄
