Since the code that use it isn't multi-threaded, I fail to see the
point. In fact even if it were, I'm not sure I see the big point...
especially since the "__thread"-keyword isn't used (AFAICT) at all in
the git source code so far.
that's why i have put a question mark behind my sentence. it was just
an idea :-). it would allow different threads to be an own event
source. but yes, i wasn't sure how much git makes use of threads. if
it doesn't, it does not make much sense at the moment, indeed.
