        gitmesh -- a front-end for Git
        ==============================
        
        **Disclaimer**: this project is currently only a thought experiment!
        
        This project's goal is to build a distributed support for modern Git workflows.
        
        While Git has been a DVCS from the start, the fork & pull request model is
        typical of centralized hosting systems.
        
        In my wildest dream, this project would serve as a proof of concept for the
        architecture required to replace GitHub with a distributed implementation where
        anybody can self-host their own repositories without losing the ability to use
        the now widely appreciated power of pull requests.
        
        The minimal requirements for this system are:
        
        - people can trivially customize their Git workflow using Git server hooks for
          implementing things like:
        
          - branch update history;
          - repository, branch & tag permissions;
          - deploy on push.
        
        - people can browse a mesh of these servers using a "true" REST API.
