Use git from Matlab

For those of you who are fans of both Matlab and git, you'll really like the following project: https://github.com/slayton/matlab-git (Matlab File Exchange page: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/38600-git-matlab).

Simply put git.m somewhere in your path and now you can use standard git commands (e.g. status, commit, pull, push) right from the Matlab terminal. I have personally found this quite handy.
