Couldn't all this directory/ownership/permission tracing be easily
done by using hooks?  E.g. Having a pre-status and pre-commit hook
one could fire up a program/script to collect all the extra info he
wants to trace and store it somewhere (typically in some traced
file).  The other way round one could have a post-checkout hook and
he could arrange it to fire up some program to look into the
extra-info file to set up all the meta-data he wants.

This would be very flexible and would permit to manage absolutely
/any/ kind of the metadata leaving absolute freedom about how to do
so.

Am I missing something here?

Merging.

Fetching.
