Bug Description

[After this bug was entered, bug #336333 came in, which was about both git and hg (Mercurial) support. So I marked that bug as a dup of this one, and added "hg (Mercurial)" to the bug summary here. They could be broken out into separate bugs; it's kind of a tossup. All this is neutral on the question of whether we should add such support or not; my purpose here is merely to keep the bug tracker organized. -Karl Fogel, 2009-03-03]
