Maybe, but who uses it? It's quite a lot of code, and it's quite
difficult to setup--you would need a non-vanilla version of git.

Compare this:
32 files changed, 3351 insertions(+), 289 deletions(-)

To this:
1 file changed, 231 insertions(+)

I would like to first get something that works in, and then step by
step work on top of that.

Anyway, I'm not even sure which version you are talking about, because
there's plenty out there:

It's way too much code, to be specific; 15x the code I just submitted.
It would be better to work together, but to me the code-styles are way
too different, the difference between night and day. If you are
interested in simplifying that code, get rid of the classes of classes
of classes and have something more consolidated, I could try to
contribute, but I doubt that's the case.

Anyway, this is 231 lines of code, and works just fine, which is
better than what we have in git.git for mercurial: basically nothing.

Cheers.
