I'm all for it!

I think I could put a cronjob on a RHEL5.4 machine, and regularly run
it on my own openSuSE 11.3 install.

Tarball contents:

    $ tar xzvf git-smoke.tar.gz
    t0004-unwritable.sh
    t0001-init.sh
    t0002-gitfile.sh
    t0005-signals.sh
    t0000-basic.sh
    t0003-attributes.sh
    t0006-date.sh
    meta.yml

That's the only thing I found confusing about this: why are they named
as if they were shellscripts?

Also, installing TAP::Harness::Archive was a bit hairy but that's
CPAN's fault...
