I _already_ use git for everyday read-only updates, so the rigamarole of having to use other paths to commit things is just annoying... being able to commit directly to git would be lovely. [Anyway, anybody that hopes to do much free-software hacking should learn git, since it's wildly popular in the free-software world...] -Miles -- Faith, n.
