When trying to require the feature 'git. I get an error with the
following backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Recursive `require' for feature `git'")
  require(git)
(if (featurep (quote git)) nil (require (quote git)) (autoload (quote git-blame-mode) "git-blame" "Minor mode for incremental blame for Git." t)) eval-region(60543 60675 t (lambda (ignore) (goto-char 60675) (quote (if ... nil ... ...)))) ; Reading at buffer position 60589 apply(eval-region (60543 60675 t (lambda (ignore) (goto-char 60675) (quote ...))))
  eval-defun-2()
  eval-defun(nil)
  call-interactively(eval-defun nil nil)
  recursive-edit()

I'm on Squeeze and installed the Sid pkg to see if it was solved. But
no. What I did was to copy git.el to my ~/elisp and change the feature
name from mere 'git to 'git-el and it worked. I guess that there's
some kinf of interaction between the vc-git.el package, now in Emacs
23 and git.el.

There's a tiny patch attached.

Thank you,

Okay, I’ll take your word for it. ;-)

Thank you for your efforts.
