Dear diary, on Thu, Apr 14, 2005 at 10:58:52PM CEST, I got a letter
where H. Peter Anvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] told me that...

 What about tig?
 
 I like Cogito; it's a real name, plus it'd be a good use for the 
 otherwise-pretty-useless two-letter combination cg.

Duh, believe me or not but I completely missed the Cogito part of
Steven's mail. Of course, I like it too.

I'll commit my poor man's git-merge-in-separate-tree and finally get
some sleep. I promise.

I imagine quite a few folks expect something not entirely unlike an SCM

wrap your filesystem plumbing to that very end.
To avoid confusion, I think it would be better to distinguish the two
layers, perhaps by calling the low-level plumbing... 'gitfs', of course.
Or perhaps to come up with a name (or at least nickname) for the SCM.
GitMaster?

Cogito.  Git inside can be the first slogan.
Differentiating the SCM built on top of git from git itself is probably 
worthwhile
to avoid confusion.  Other SCMs may be developed later, built on git, and these
can come up with their own clever names.
And the logo could be a dove which, as everybody knows, coos.
