Yes, the plumbing is really lovely when it comes time to whipping  
together a quick tool for a special task; much nicer than writing a  
plugin.

For the benefit of newcomers, I just wish the plumbing was kept a  
little bit out of sight. You know, porcelain in /usr/bin and plumbing  
in /usr/libexec or other such place.

It's fine once you've learnt your workflows and know the 10 or 15 Git  
tools that you'll be using day-to-day; but for people who are just  
starting off this can be a little bit intimidating:

$ git-<tab>
Display all 146 possibilities? (y or n)

Cheers,
Wincent
