One thing that I occasionally miss is

  cg-export /path/to/directory/

And yes, I know it can be accomplished via "obscurities" like
git-archive+tar (or worse git-checkout-index) but I think having
an easy way to checkout to a directory could be great (and possibly
with the ability to apply substitutions with the recent discussion).

Else, I am really looking forward for the option parser work to provide
an easy way to list options. I found it very useful with Cogito.
Also, most of the "status" commands in Cogito seemd to provide a richer
default output geared towards human consumption. For example stuff like
git-branch -v and git remote -v flags would have been the default for
Cogito ... I think.
