To make it short: I had received interest from another user for
relocatable git installations and an updated patch against current git
(based on my last post of the code to this list in 2012). This
confirmed to me that the use case is still valid. However, I do not see
myself in a position to iterate the code through the review and
improvement process that starting to unfold now. So if someone sometime
picks this up and carries on, I'd be happy. Otherwise please disregard.
