Hi,

The one I merged into Git for Windows (since that is what I install on all
my machines even if they run Linux) is rock-solid. It also comes with
tests. And it requires a fix I tried to get into git.git (but failed,
since I was asked to do much more in addition to what I needed for myself,
and I lack the time to address such requests these days).

So I have to admit that I do not quite see the point of avoiding to
enhance the existing work of Sverre (and a little bit of me, too, in a
hackathon for which I traveled half the continent back in July 2011).

Ciao,
Johannes
