For lack of a better name I call it ugit, as in "I git, you git, we all git with ugit" (or something silly like that). Though there's still a few things remaining to be implemented, the bulk of the initial groundwork is already done. All you need to build/run it is python and pyqt4 (pyuic4). I've deliberately tried to keep the interface similar to git-gui for now since it is obviously based on it, but that's not a requirement. Of course there are some notable things missing (such as proper i18n), but it's not too bad for a first draft. For more details (and the code) see: http://repo.or.cz/w/ugit.git Enjoy, -- David A.
