1. Jonathan N: Cannot use safely on its own. So why do we still have it?

2. Jonathan N: It’s not an interactive shell, it’s a login shell. To 
give the user only access to a git repo.

3. Jonathan N: Gitolite is the only sensible thing that uses git-shell. 
If this is the only good use-case? So can we donate it to them?

4. Peff: If it’s a tool for security, but no one is using it, so 
it’s dangerous to have it around. It’s mostly stand-alone, so it 
should be possible.
