Subject: libgit2 - a true git library
Message-ID: <20081031170704.GU14786@spearce.org>

During the GitTogether we were kicking around the idea of a ground-up
implementation of a Git library.  This may be easier than trying
to grind down git.git into a library, as we aren't tied to any
of the current global state baggage or the current die() based
error handling.

I've started an _extremely_ rough draft.  The code compiles into a
libgit.a but it doesn't even implement what it describes in the API,
let alone a working Git implementation.  Really what I'm trying to
incite here is some discussion on what the API looks like.
