I suspect that many people outside CGit circle may not know who this
Jason (who never appeared in git@vger.kernel.org) is, and are
wondering in what capacity he is sending a S-o-b for somebody else's
patch without explanation.  An inroduction may help others (as can
be seen on Cc: line, I added Lars there because I didn't even know
he was still the man behind CGit).

Later last year, the project was taken over by an active contributor
with the other active contributor (Ferry Huberts)'s support and then
later with Lars's blessing:

  http://hjemli.net/pipermail/cgit/2013-January/000884.html

That active contributor is Jason. The repository has also been moved
to Jason's http://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/ even though mailing list and
its archive seem to be still suported by Lars's hjemli.net.  And the
latest CGit 0.9.1 was release mid November 2012 by him.

John Keeping has been actively working on making sure that CGit
works with newer codebase for the past couple of days, until he
found out that after our v1.7.12.4 some symbols were unavailable to
him from us X-< which triggered this topic.  Jason's S-o-b as the
CGit maintainer is certainly appropriate for this patch.

So, thanks, Jason and John for your efforts.
