Currently, the write side will probably not be able to work on bare repositories; it will have a working copy _per repository_ and the operations like git add will work on the working copy. The original idea was to just have a git-gui replacement that runs within your browser, and that's what is getting implemented I think. This is not that interesting to me, but the applications it can be easily extended to are. ;-) > Perhaps you meant to say "without working copy on the client side", and if > that is the case I think we are on the same wavelength.

DeltaV? I think WebDAV API would be very fine to have *in addition* to user-friendly web interface, but is useful in very different scenarios. You need something to frontend WebDAV anyway. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis http://pasky.or.cz/ | "Ars longa, vita brevis." -- Hippocrates -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
