I believe mine, git, is less complete than the git-core version so I suspect we should adopt that one instead of mine. I'd be happy to do whatever is necessary to remove mine, but I don't think it's possible to remove it. Packing it as a wrapper would be fine too (and if you could tell me the best way to do that, I'd appreciate it. The git package was actually my first debian-based package ever!) For the wrapper package, you could simply let it depend on git-core and make its contents empty, I guess. The other way would be for Khertan to make sure that his git-core source package creates the dummy git package that depends on git-core. This might create a conflict in the repos, though (two different source packages creating the same binary package). Niels could probably just remove your package from the repos with the reasoning from above and then have Khertan upload a new version of the git-core package that also creates the transitional git wrapper package. Here are the instructions for Debian, but the changes to debian/control should be working on Maemo, too: http://wiki.debian.org/Renaming_a_Package HTH.

Multiple packages for Git in Maemo Extras (git and git-core)
Hi! I've just noticed that there are different packages of Git in the Extras repository: One is called git[1] and the other git-core[2] - with different maintainers and different versions. It would be nice if we could find a way to resolve this issue and get one of the packages removed (or at least replaced with an empty dummy package that simply depends on the other package). I'll leave it up to you (Khertan and Wes, the maintainers of these packages) to decide which one we should be moving forward with. git-core has a newer version, but is not optified AFAICT. I have not tried git yet. In Debian, git is the current package name, while git-core is now just a transitional package depending on git, so maybe we should do the same in Maemo Extras (just from a naming perspective, I don't care who maintains it, as long as someone does).

Re: Git on Maemo
in the diablo extras repository is a package git-core i use this on my n900 to do all my git related activities. note however, it has 1 limitation - it works well using git: protocol, but it cannot do SSH updates (maemo garage uses this protocol) apart from that, its solid and should most likely be moved to fremantle repository.
