[ANNOUNCE] qgit-0.93

[Marco Costalba]

Hi all,

On SF there is an update of qgit, a git GUI viewer (and lately also 
committer and patch exchanger ;-) )

	http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/qgit/qgit-0.93.tar.bz2?download


This time I have added the interfaces to import and export patches by 
git-format-patch-script and git-applymbox.

As a side effect it is now possible to drag and drop a set of 
selected revisions between two instances of qgit (there is also the 
new menu entry 'open in a new window';-) )

Other updates include complete recursive search of refs under .git/refs/ and 
highlight according to type: current branch(HEAD), branch, tag, other.

And new is also graft support, thanks to Linus hint of --parents flag in git-rev-list 

Under the hood a reworked and much more powerful error handling and reporting 
code and a better commit.

As usual the shop is open for suggestions/requests and bug reports.
