git? branch-2-2?

Hello libtoolers, 1) Can we move to use git now? 2) Can we create a branch-2-2 and cherry-pick bugfixes from HEAD into it, aiming for a soonish 2.2.2 (let's say, in a few weeks; already a few important issues are known)? 3) If yes and yes, do you agree with the proposed git policy: master

libltdl skips dlopen loader if there are others
