Sorry I didn't mean for that to sound quite so rude. Having invested a
good bit of time in trying to understand git, I think I git it now so
to speak and not having a public repo where there can be really
collaborative development seems to be a step back to me. Not that
bugzilla + diff's is bad. Its great for minor enhancements and small
patches that are not ready to go in but for major new developments
requiring multiple eye balls, a shared repository is the only sane way
to go.
