We'd like to hear feedback on the API. Look at the operations
your application does with git-core.
Can you express that with the libgit2 API?
If not, why not?
Is it just that the docs are unclear?
Is the API missing?
What would you like to invoke to get the data you need?
...
You are the end-user of the library, so it needs to suit you. Ok,
you aren't the only end-user, but you and other developers like
you... :-)
