It might be cool if git-daemon supported
avahi/zeroconf/bonjour/rendezvous as a server and maybe git-status(?
or maybe a new command) had a flag that could make it an avahi client
and list repositories on the local network being advertised over
avahi.

It looks like bzr has an avahi plugin.  Not sure whether it would be a
useful feature for people.  What do other folks think?

As a project, it seems fairly self-contained and well defined, and
might be doable for a small team in 24 hours.
