dub is about making it easy for 99% of users. If you need your

Use git

now you killed dub for "normal" GNU/Linux programmer.
dub as a build tool sux. no need to discuss that, it simply sux.
why do you think it sucks ?
and now you killed the only sensible way to use it: as package
manager.
that's why, for example, i never considered adding anything to
dub
repository: that repository is completely useless for me. and
other
people who aren't use dub to build their projects will ignore
dub
repository too.
