Hello, I was wondering if anyone of you has applied git to manage the evolution of a product line. In such a context management of software reuse and permanent variation becomes necessary.

I think that the distributed character of git as well the easier handling of branches could be very beneficial in such a context.

Yet I was wondering how the relations between reusable and reused things could be managed?

If for example I am the maintainer of a library in a product line context I want to know who pulls from me and whether my library had to undergo any product-specific changes in any of the other repositories that belong to my product line.

Regards, Michalis
