Hmmm, if I get some time over the weekend i'll take a look at porting
them to Git.  But maybe some of the items you mentioned above deserve
to become part of Git proper?  It would definitely be nice to see
something like what you just did put into the hands of more users than
just those using Cogito, and its unfortunate that the current state
of Git code kept you from going that route.

No doubt, there would be some slightly thorny issues to deal with.  It
might even end up too fragile to be worthwhile.
