Hmm. So it seems like a pretty straightforward subtree merge of git-subtree. I can't say I'm super excited about having copied bits like contrib/subtree/t/Makefile that are basically replicas of git's t/Makefile. But there's not that much of it, the cruft lives in contrib, and there's really not a good solution short of actually making git-subtree a first-class git command.

But more important than the physical layout is the maintenance plan going forward. Is Avery going to keep maintaining git-subtree, and we will just occasionally pull? Are you maintaining it? Where will patches go? To a github repo? To git@vger?
