Dear diary, on Sat, Nov 12, 2005 at 01:19:45PM CET, I got a letter
where Martin Langhoff <martin.langhoff@gmail.com> said that...

I've been replying only to this, but missed the team shared repo case,
where StGIT obviously does not make much sense.

Well, only pulls make up for merges. But what's wrong with that? This is
just what you get when using distributed VCS, and what's the point in
skewing the history to look different than how did it happen? I'd just
get used to it. :-)
