git-bug: Distributed bug tracker embedded in git

["Michael Muré" <batolettre@gmail.com>]

Hi everyone,

I released today git-bug, a distributed bug tracker that embeds in
git. It use git's internal storage to store bugs information in a way
that can be merged without conflict. You can push/pull to the normal
git remote you are already using to interact with other people. Normal
code and bugs are completely separated and no files are added in the
regular branches.

Someone suggested in the Hacker News thread [0] to post it here as well.

The project is here [1].

It's a all-in-one binary that is picked up by git as a porcelain
command. It features a set of CLI command for simple interaction, an
interactive terminal UI and a rich web UI.

For more information about the internal design, please read this
document [2]. In short, bugs are stored as a series of edit operations
stored in git blobs and assembled in a linear chain of commits. This
allow to have conflict-free merge and to not pollute the regular
branches with bug data. Media embedding is also possible but not yet
finished.

I'd love to have some feedback from you. Contribution are also very
much welcomed.

Best regards,
