I'm wondering if the issues with gitit have to do with gitit calling darcs changes and that hanging on the back end.
I noted darcs changes hangs, recently, here: http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/darcs-users/2009-April/019313.html What gitit (and patch-tag) really needs is better darcs changes performance, I think, for history browsing. thomas.
