With the current list of ok's 73.09% of the code in git.git seems to be relicenseable for the purpose of libgit2. That will provide quite a kickstart.

I doubt it. Most of that code was written with the execute-once mentality. And with the we-have-posix mentality.


"Copy-rewrite", naturally. Being able to lift much of the data-munging code
is a great benefit. It's basically just the revision traversal (which is
heavy on state-dependant code) that I haven't quite figured out how to do
yet, but I believe Shawn's idea of using revision pools is most likely the
way to go. Each application has to make sure a pool isn't modified by more
than one thread, but each application can have as many pools as it likes.
