All the necessary "core" support should already be there, except
for the client side support. Please look at yesterday's thread
with title "dumb transports not being welcomed".

Personally I think Cogito should be able to just call git-fetch
to implement cg-pull -- I do not claim the current git-fetch has
everything needed (incapable of using objects/info/alternates is
an example), but we should be able to fix and enhance just one
program to make everybody happy, not two.
