Hi,

Dear diary, on Fri, Feb 10, 2006 at 08:59:14PM CET, I got a letter
where Shawn Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> said that...

  it sounds interesting. I've been thinking about wrapping some patch
queue tool in Cogito (post-1.0) and pg might be a better choice than
StGIT.

  One thing I dislike on both StGIT and pg is that they both try to
build a full-fledged porcelain on top of GIT, instead of just focusing
on the patch management, doing it well and providing a convenient user
interface (well, can't say about pg's interface, didn't try it yet).
Instead of having pg-add, pg-log, or pg-status it might be more fruitful
to contribute the features you are missing to git-core or Cogito.

But while it claims to be compatible with all the porcelains, it at
least cannot be clone by them. ;) The GIT repository is not quite a
valid GIT repository since it is missing the HEAD and Cogito clones
based on this file instead of just assuming that your head is on the
master branch.


Also, when cloning it gives me a little unnerving errors like

error: File 6427c0154400f578d9cdff178e01e946db6f714f
(http://www.spearce.org/projects/scm/pg.git/objects/64/27c0154400f578d9cdff178e01e946db...)
corrupt

(but strangely, fsck-objects later does not complain).
