Well, it's not like one cannot submit patches against portage tree patches already.. And git is only super-convenient when combined with proper review tool, preferably with 'auto-push'. But then again who would honestly 'trust' user-submitted merge request without trying to 'QA'* the package himself? The 'need' to check it myself delays user submissions in my case anyway. (moving to git would likely help with shortening the cycle when combined with having 'overlays' being git clones of official gentoo-x86. I'm afraid however whole 'atomic' tree is just too huge to be practically cloned. Maybe Exherbo-like concept of project-specific git repos would work but splitting gentoo-x86 would sounds like a revolution) * - looking for possible automagic in buildsystem, checking installed filelist regards MM
