I've worked on this a bit over the weekend.
I've forked the main git repo  on github to merge my tree on top of that.

I basically did a: git subtree merge --prefix=contrib/subtree <my git-subtree branch>

The work in progress in on: https://github.com/helmo/git (the subtree-updates branch)

Rentzsch supplied a patch to get the original test.sh up and running again. This will make it easier to get the tests in t7900-subtree.sh updated.
