I was/am looking forward to node-gitteh being updated to use gyp, unfortunately it took longer than it took for my Raspberry Pi to arrive, so I ended up just writing a quick little binding to libgit2 using node-ffi (https://github.com/TooTallNate/n8.io/blob/f98776b53b1bcb7efbd2f4c878ef91725f18b902/lib/git.js). You can take a look at the blog code to see how to use it. It's not ideal over node-gitteh, but it does the job while we wait.
