Based on this thread, I took a leap and ported git/cogito to cygwin, so
that they are now available from a standard cygwin installation, and am
considering using git on more projects myself.  I think moving gnulib to
git would be reasonable; I particularly liked the concept of being able to
diff history without a network connection, and of branches being O(1)
instead of O(n).
