I've uploaded another pre-release of my gitfs tool.  I haven't had much time
to work on it lately, so not much has changed since the last release a
year ago:
	http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/archives/git/0511/12617.html

However that version no longer works (or even compiles against :-) the FUSE API in recent linux kernels so I figured a fresh tarball would be nice.

Changes:
  * Added a configuration subsystem.  Isn't used for much yet
  * At the top of each tree there's now a synthetic ".git" directory
    which includes some symlinks and a "HEAD" file that points to
    the currently viewed root.  The idea is to allow some simple git
    commands to work inside of a gitfs directory.  Unfortunately this doesn't
    work yet since git no longer recognizes a non-symbolic ref in "HEAD".
    I'll try to work around this soon.
  * Various bug-fixes, etc
As usual tarballs are available at:
	http://www.sfgoth.com/~mitch/linux/gitfs/
Sorry, I still haven't set up a git repository for it yet.
