Right. the work-tree/git-dir switches allow out-of-tree git commands which I did not need when I initially did Git support, and unfortunately I forgot about them. > C) > - applying Miklos patches to the current git support > - ignoring incompatibility with git<=1.5.2 I think the situation where compabitility with git<=1.5.2 makes sense is Debian stable. It has Pootle 0.10.1. It just does not have Git support. If a sysadmin decides to install newer a never (it was called unofficial) version of Pootle, then I think it is not that hard to install a newer version of Git as well. I think if we want to support Debian stable, then we have to support 1.4.4.4, since that's the official version Debian comes with. There are major changes between 1.4.x and 1.5.x, and - to be honest - I'm not too motivated to write code for <1.5.x. So I would vote for C). Just my two cents.
