At its core is a GUI for viewing Incoming / Outgoing changesets. It also includes support for initiating pulls / pushes, doing clones, etc. Eventually I hope to provide access to much more functionality. My "native" DVCS is Mercurial and I'm rather new to git's way of doing things, although it is similar in many respects. PMPU is intended to support multiple DVCS systems; currently it supports hg, bzr and git. The level of support and testing for these backends varies, however my eventual goal is to have complete and robust support for all of them (and probably others). This is just a quick heads-up that I've tagged a 0.1 release and that the code may be worth looking at / playing with for some of you. Please note that error handling is non-existant and that many usecases (e.g. nested repositories) haven't been tested. The git backend is currently fairly lightly tested. It seems to work OK for me, just please be CAUTIOUS when playing with it. The hg repository is here: http://xenbits.xensource.com/maw/pmpu.hg And the homepage (including a tarball of the release) is here: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~maw48/pmpu/ I would love to hear any feedback, suggestions, bug reports, etc. Please cc any mailing list e-mails to me, as I am not subscribed. You're all welcome to contact me directly if preferred. Cheers, Mark -- Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat? And no pedals! Mark: To answer a question with a question: What use is a skateboard? Dave: Skateboards have wheels. Mark: My wheel has a wheel!
