Finally, about the Eclipse plugin:

* 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.

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)

File->Import... from Git.  That can clone a repository.  After it
finishes you'll have to use the import wizard again to actually
import existing .project files, or create new projects, etc.

* "git stash": is it supported?

Not in Eclipse, no.

What do you mean by this?

I mean there's no implementation of git stash.  Eclipse doesn't
support git stash, the notion of the stash, the branch the stash
is on.  Its not in the Eclipse plugin.

* 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?

Its also not implemented in the eclipse UI.
