Long story short: Shawn shared push access with me. I take patches and work on them mondays and thursdays, but try to comment on them as soon as I see them. Ramsay Jones is more or less the only one sending patches right now, and I still have to respond to his latest series.
Long story long: Development is slow indeed. Recently Shawn decided to share push access to repo.or.cz with me, but I went partying, fell down some stairs and hit my head quite badly not long after so I've been convalescent. Now I'm at a two day conference event for a different opensource project (Nagios) where I'm working quite a lot.
Normally, I have two days per week (monday and thursday) to work on open- source things. That time is split between Nagios and libgit2.
Ramsay Jones is the most active contributor at the time, but he was not comfortable with push access so I shouldered that responsibility for the time being.
I'm working (but slowly; see above) on index manipulation. Unfortunately, that also entails adding about a billion other things, so even if I'd been 100% healthy things would have been slow.
