Dear diary, on Sun, Sep 24, 2006 at 01:48:34PM CEST, I got a letter where Alex Riesen <fork0@t-online.de> said that...

Absolutely.
Actually, as I noted in the patch comment, if we reintroduce Git.xs again we should probably do it so that it is completely optional and the equivalent functionality is also implemented in Git.pm in pure perl + execing Git. I have been originally opposed to that but after all the woes we had to go through I have changed my opinion.
