It's now hosted at https://gitlab.com/monnier/bugit

In the mean time it grew to 80KB, offers a read-only web UI, email notifications, and a fairly complete command line UI.

It also changed its internal representation slightly, so it can now be used within the same Git repository as the project on which you're working (e.g. I cloned the BuGit source code and BuGit's bug database into the same repository, so I can use bugit directly from the source code directory to manipulate its bugs).

You can even host the bug database and the source code of your project in the same repository (the post-receive hook script can be told to pass the non-bugit-related changes to some other script).
