is that really relevent? mosh doesn't support things like X forwarding or port forwarding, but it certainly does support ssh <host> <command> and then doing IO. It might not support not doing terminal emulation stuff, but that seems like a simple thing to change in principal at which point I think it would support enough of ssh's functionality its a drop in replacement as far as git is concerned. Seems to me mosh is close enough on its own its worth experimentation by someone who cares.
