No, but you could do:

$ ssh master.kernel.org -L 7777:localhost:7777 \
    git-server --tcp --port 7777 \
               --db /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git &
$ git-server --tcp --port 7777 send master

You could probably play some games with shell redirection to file descriptors if you really wanted to use the stdio stuff over ssh, but that's a little ugly.

Tags are on my 'TODO' list, as are the deltafication and mulitple-request changes. Also, a verdict on the name (daemon vs server vs anything else) would be nice.
