I am a bit unhappy about the namespace grab.  Not for trademark
reasons: the Git trademark rules are pretty clear about this kind of
usage being okay.  Instead, the unhappiness comes because a future Git
command like "git bug" to produce a bug report with appropriate
diagnostics for a bug in Git seems like a likely and useful thing to
get added to Git some day.  And now the name's taken.

Is it too late to ask if it's possible to come up with a less generic
name?

Separately from that, I'm happy to see progress being made in the
distributed bug tracker world; thanks for that!

Thanks,
Jonathan
