Finally, about the Eclipse plugin:
* the README says that it has no push capacity, the popup menu says
otherwise (last checked last Saturday)... What should I believe?

The README is out of date.  Push is implemented, works, and folks
actually use it.  That was a nice success from our GSoC program
this year.

Good to hear :p Any chance that the README gets updated? ;)

* if the plugin can push, can you configure from within the plugin what
branches can be pushed where, or should you edit .git/config by hand?

I don't think you can edit saved configurations in the plugin UI.
The APIs are there underneath to do the reading/writing and most
of the UI to show a configuration is present, I just don't think
anyone has wired the two together for saved configurations inside
of .git/config.  So yea, edit by hand.

Not a big deal, I guess. This can be handled... (BTW, what about "git clone"? 
Still not there, although _this_ can be dealt with also)

* "git stash": is it supported?

Not in Eclipse, no.

What do you mean by this?

quoted

* can you "copy" a commit, or even a set of commits, and "cherry-pick"
them into another branch? Or even rebase a branch onto antoher?

Not in Eclipse, no.

Same question... What exactly is the problem with Eclipse wrt this kind of 
operation?
