Would having arbitrary key value pairs be useful in the git data
model?
My answer to the question is that it is harmful to the data model,
but the benefit of going against the data model _may_ outweigh the
downside. It is all relative.
If git doesn't provide the capability, people will keep using the
commit message to store that extra information, which I would think is
even more harmful. An standard 'commit-extra' note or something would
help deal with that.
Cheers.
