Especially since there is so much overlap in what these two packages do. That would seem like the best thing to do for most users in fact, asking them to install and keep both up to date just doesn't make sense, to me at least. > The point is, I'll of course prefer doing this stuff in Cogito while I'm > enhancing Cogito, and I'll work on Cogito while I and others will be > using it.

It's just a shame that your talents are split off from helping the main project more. Git would be further along today in content and PR if it had managed to attract you back from your Cogito adventure. Then all the nice things you're able to say about Cogito might then be said about Git proper, and maybe we'd attract even more users. While you've contributed more to Git than many others (including me obviously), it would sure be nice to see you back full time on Git. I want to type "git bundle" without having to install more software damnit ;o) But of course you have to decide what's best for yourself. Sean
