Re: GSOC git push pull to plone.app.theming

Not sure I've grokked all of the use cases here, but maybe it would be better to allow manipulation of file system files (eg resources/theme/*) in the theme editor (which would be pretty easy but will require careful security considerations) and use dulwch on those?


Trying to implement the git protocol with zodb blobs as backing storage sounds inanely complicated and error probe and unlikely to remain maintainable. git talks files :)

Subversion Kills Productivity. Get off Subversion & Make the Move to Perforce.
With Perforce, you get hassle-free workflows. Merge that actually works. 
Faster operations. Version large binaries.  Built-in WAN optimization and the
freedom to use Git, Perforce or both. Make the move to Perforce.
