      Sparks with Git in CodeIgniter

      This is a quick video outlining how you can create Sparks in CodeIgniter using Git. I take my Template library as an example and upgrade it from v1.7.0 to v1.8.0, finishing in a bit of a ramble about how Sparks can help fix some of the problems in the CodeIgniter community. Sparks are pretty damn awesome, check the video out and have a play with them when you're done.
