 However, I'm a bit unsure if you aren't loading too much on yourself,
seeing how much effort it took the other projects to implement *just the
read-only parts* properly. So I still wonder why it wouldn't be better
to focus purely on the editing and commit creation, while relying on
an existing web interface to provide the history browsing, diffs, etc.
Yeah, My GSoC project will consist of this. Remaining all
functionalities will be coded after i finish GSoC.
 This could be done in several ways - simply taking a client and adding
your code to provide the extra functionality there, OR creating a
standalone project that would be cross-linked with a given web
interface. The latter option is interesting since your extension could
work easily with the web interfaces of choice (and e.g. modifying gitweb
to provide the appropriate links is trivial, to a degree even possible
purely from config file).
I am intended to link it with gitweb.
 P.S.: I could volunteer to mentor such a project, if no more active
Git hacker shows interest. Perhaps Jakub Narebski might be interested?
Wow. That's great, If u could get a confirmation that somebody is
willing to mentor this, then i can start the project even before the
start of GSoC itself.
